What we seek in Northampton_Place renters
In Northampton_Place, our team likes to work with reasonable renters. Here are a few of the traits we seek out.
- A renter pays the rent when due every month. This means paying on or before the first, rather than at 5 pm on the 5th.
- A tenant is trustworthy. A renter does not sneak in a co-tenant or pet.
- A renter is fastidious. A renter does not attract pests such as rodents and bugs.
- A renter does not damage the home.
- A renter is courteous and easy to get along with. A tenant knows the difference between a property manager and a hotel concierge.
- A renter doesn't disturb neighbors.
- A renter complains at appropriate times. Renters that don't report maintenance issues cost property owners money and cause issues for property managers.
- A tenant doesn't gripe when it's not appropriate. This means that a renter doesn't ask to upgrade functioning systems. A renter doesn't expect more than the lease provides. A renter 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 rental.
- A tenant is looking for a lease that is as long as the owner wants to rent the rental.
So this is what we're looking for in a renter, but how do we find tenants who measure up to this standard? Experience has taught us that difficult renters can appear as polite, nicely-dress, well educated people with jobs. We have a nose for sniffing out troublesome tenants.
Our Five Step Process
Fair Housing Laws and our conscience dictates that we do not judge potential tenants in Northampton_Place based upon appearance. Experience has taught us that appearances can be very decieving. We do however assess potential renters based upon their track record and their actions. If a applicant is rude to us at the beginning, they will probably be trying as renters. If a is caught fabricating facts, we will expect them to be dishonest as a renter. If a has troubles finding money for background fees and the first month of rent, we will expect that same person will have troubles while they are in the rental.
But even when every appearance initially is promising we still vet each potential renter with a complete background check. Every person and occupant must submit 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
