What we seek in Port_royal tenants
In Port_royal, Nesbitt Realty wants to deal with dependable renters. Here are some 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 renter is trustworthy. A renter does not sneak in a co-renter or pet.
- A renter is reasonably clean. A tenant does not attract pests such as rodents and bugs.
- A tenant does not misuse systems.
- A renter is courteous and pleasant to work with. A renter knows the difference between a property manager and a hotel concierge.
- A tenant doesn't annoy neighbors.
- A tenant complains when appropriate. tenants that don't report maintenance issues cost real estate investors 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 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 renter doesn't know how to operate the appliance.
- A tenant does not smoke in the home.
- A renter is looking for a rental term that is as long as the real estate investor wants to rent the home.
So this is what we're looking for in a tenant, but how do we find tenants who live up to this standard? Experience has taught us that unreasonable renters can appear as polite, nicely-dress, well educated people with jobs. We have a nose for sniffing out troublesome renters.
Our Five Step Process
Fair Housing Laws and our conscience dictates that we do not judge applicants in Port_royal based upon appearance. Experience has taught us that appearances can be very decieving. We do however assess applicants based upon their track record and their actions. If a applicant is difficult with our managers at the start, they will probably be troublesome as tenants. If a lies, we can expect them to be unreliable as a tenant. If a has a problem finding certified fundsfor background fees and the first month of rent, we will expect that same applicant will have difficulty while they are in the rental.
But even when 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 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
