Our Five Step Process
Fair Housing Laws and our conscience dictates that we do not judge people in Potomac_Yard_Alexandria based upon appearance. Experience has taught us that appearances can be very decieving. We do however assess potential tenants based upon their reputation and their actions. If a applicant is difficult with us from the start, they will probably be difficult as renters. If a lies, we can expect them to be unreliable as a renter. If a has difficulty finding certified fundsfor background fees and the first month of rent, we can expect that same potential tenant will have difficulty during the lease.
But even if every statement initially is promising we still check the background of every applicant with a complete background check. Every applicant and occupant must provide a government-issue photo identification. From there, as property managers we start our vetting process.

"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
