Tenant Inspection Before Letting Your Property

Believe it or not, but some people will pay less attention to the identity and references

of their tenants than they normally do before letting some plumber in to their house. Such negligence can have serious repercussions. At times, the tenant may turn out to be a guy with a criminal background (or even worse, someone associated with a terrorist outfit) or a plain bully, making it hard for you to collect monthly rent on time or increasing rent when its due. Needless to say, its quite hard to force these tenants to leave once youve let them in. On the other hand, something as simple as contacting the tenants previous landlords and inquiring about the tenant can save you from innumerable troubles in the future. However, thats not the only check you need to perform, there are many others such as checking bankruptcy records, criminal record check, liens & judgments, credit history or checking in the list of registered sex offenders.

You can start from doing some verification from their previous landlords, employer or neighbors. Dont write off this background screening process as being overly-vigilant, theres nothing wrong in protecting you and your property from the troublemakers or miscreants of any kind. You should prepare your application form (that the interested tenants must fill before you select/reject them) in a way that it accumulates all of the required information about the tenants including their identification, whereabouts, rental history, employment details and credit history. Do not start verifying the information for each of these applications though; you should only check those applicants that you have short listed.

Pay special attention to the person who doesnt appear local, ask and verify for the reason of moving into that specific area. However, all of this verification or screening process should be carried out on non-discriminatory basis and solely for your own satisfaction (not because you are looking to find an excuse to refuse someone whom you do not like for some biased reasons). You should also inform the tenant that you will verify the information provided by them, remember there are various laws protecting the tenants rights. An honest tenant should have no issues with all of this screening; in fact the vigilance of landlord will leave a good impression on them. Do not set inflexible standards though, for example, you may not be ready to compromise on criminal background or incessantly bad credit history, however you can consider becoming a little lax on requisites like family size.
