What we look for in Brookville_Townhomes tenants
In Brookville_Townhomes, our team likes to deal with reliable tenants. Here are some of the traits we seek out.
- A tenant pays the rent when due every time. This means paying on or before the first, rather than at 5 pm on the 5th.
- A renter has integrity. A tenant does not sneak in a co-tenant or pet.
- A renter is neat. A tenant does not attract pests like rodents and bugs.
- A renter does not misuse the property or its systems.
- A tenant is courteous and nice to work with. A tenant understands the difference between a property manager and a hotel concierge.
- A tenant doesn't bother neighbors.
- A renter reports problems when appropriate. Renters that don't report maintenance issues cost landlords money and cause issues for property managers.
- A tenant doesn't gripe when it's not appropriate. This means that a renter doesn't demand to replace functioning systems. A tenant doesn't expect more than the lease provides. A tenant doesn't complain that an appliance doesn't work when the tenant doesn't know how to operate the appliance.
- A renter does not smoke in the home.
- A renter is looking for a lease that is as long as the real estate investor wants to rent the rental.
So this is what we're looking for in a renter, but how do we find renters who live up to this ideal? Experience has taught us that unreasonable tenants can appear as polite, nicely-dress, well educated people with jobs. We have a nose for sniffing out bad renters.
Our Five Step Process
Fair Housing Laws and our conscience dictates that we do not judge potential tenants in Brookville_Townhomes based upon appearance. Experience has taught us that appearances can be very decieving. We do however assess potential renters based upon their reputation and their actions. If a applicant is rude to our managers from the outset, they will probably be troublesome as tenants. If a lies, we will expect them to be untrustworthy as a renter. If a has difficulty producing money for background fees and the first month of rent, we can expect that same potential renter will have problems during the lease.
But even if every action initially is promising we still check the background of every applicant with a complete background check. Every person and occupant must provide a government-issue photo identification. From there, as rental we start our vetting process.

Our Broker Will Nesbitt
"I am by nature a trusting person, but this business has taught me to verify every statement that a tenant makes. Scammers and bad tenants can sometimes give every appearance of being trustworthy and upright people. We never cut corners on background checks." ~ Will Nesbitt
Julie Nesbitt
I like tenants that pay on time. Late paying tenants cause extra work and unnecessary stress for landlords and property managers. ~ Julie Nesbitt
