What we look for in Villamay renters
In Villamay, Nesbitt Realty likes to work with dependable renters. Here are a few of the traits we expect.
- A renter 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 is honest. A tenant does not sneak in a co-renter or pet.
- A tenant is neat. A tenant does not bring pests like rodents and bugs.
- A tenant does not overwork the home.
- A tenant is courteous and pleasant to work with. A tenant knows the difference between a property manager and a hotel concierge.
- A renter doesn't disturb neighbors.
- A renter complains when appropriate. tenants that don't report maintenance issues cost property owners money and cause problems for property managers.
- A tenant doesn't complain when it's not appropriate. This means that a tenant 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 renter 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 property owner wants to rent the home.
So this is what we're looking for in a tenant, but how do we find renters who live up to this standard? Experience has taught us that troublesome tenants can appear as polite, nicely-dress, well educated people with jobs. We have a knack for sniffing out difficult renters.
Our Five Step Process
Fair Housing Laws and our conscience dictates that we do not judge people in Villamay based upon appearance. Experience has taught us that appearances can be very decieving. We do however assess potential renters based upon their history and their actions. If a applicant is difficult with our managers at the beginning, they will probably be trying as tenants. If a makes false statements, we will 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 can expect that same person will have difficulty while they are in the rental.
But even if every action initially is promising we still check the background of every person with a full background check. Every potential tenant and occupant must provide a government-issue photo identification. From there, as property managers 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

I like tenants that pay on time. Late paying tenants cause extra work and unnecessary stress for landlords and property managers. ~ Julie Nesbitt
