How Nesbitt Realty Investigates The Background Of Your Prospective Tenant In Alexandria, Virginia

The first step for our business to find a solid lessee is to market your rental to the widest-possible audience. But the second step is to identify the the best renter. Vetting applicants is one of the most critical tasks of any competent rental management company in Northern Virginia. Nesbitt Realty scrutinizes the possible renter’s past behavior. With that in mind, Nesbitt Realty assumes the potential renter’s future behavior will be the same. The possible lessee should demonstrate a history of being a top, reliable renter as well as having the income and debt-ratio to manage rent. Our background checking process is founded on several simple formula including:
  • Application – After the applicant inspects a rental, the agent takes an application. The application is accompanied by supporting documentation so that Nesbitt Realty can verify and examine all information included on the application. The potential renter pays for the cost of the background check at the time of application.
  • Criminal Record & Evictions – Our family-run operation knows it's essential to know the criminal and public court records of the applicant on every rental townhouse in Alexandria. Owners should be aware that most other property managers do not examine court records.
  • Tenant Screening – Nesbitt Realty & Management screens tenants with a combination of checking credit history, background, eviction and criminal screening services as well as our own efforts to collect information needed to confirm and process the application.
If accepted, the applicant’s in-processing includes a lease, lease signing, collecting pro-rated rent, and providing the tenant with a copy of any association documents needed for disclosure and instruction on rules and regulations associated with the investment townhouse and community. For a complete break-down our process, talk to an agent or read more here. Nesbitt Realty also gets lessees through relocation networks and other methods.
