What we look for in Penrose tenants
In Penrose, our management staff prefers to work with reasonable renters. 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 tenant is honest. A renter does not sneak in a co-renter or pet.
- A renter is neat. A tenant does not attract pests like rodents and bugs.
- A renter does not destroy the home.
- A renter is courteous and pleasant to work with. A tenant knows the difference between a property manager and a hotel concierge.
- A renter doesn't bother neighbors.
- A tenant reports problems at appropriate times. tenants 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 tenant doesn't demand 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 tenant does not smoke in the property.
- A renter is looking for a rental term that is as long as the landlord wants to rent the rental.
So this is what we're looking for in a tenant, but how do we find renters who measure up to this standard? Experience has taught us that tardy 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 Penrose based upon appearance. Experience has taught us that appearances can be very decieving. We do however judge potential renters based upon their reputation and their actions. If a applicant is rude to us at the start, they will probably be difficult as tenants. If a lies, we can expect them to be unreliable as a tenant. If a has troubles scrounging up money for background fees and the first month of rent, we will expect that same applicant will have difficulty during the lease.
But even if every appearance initially is promising we still check the background of each person with a full 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
