What we look for in Compton Valley Estates renters
In Compton Valley Estates, our management staff prefers to deal with dependable renters. Here are some of the traits we expect.
- A tenant pays the rent on time every time. This means paying on or before the first, rather than at 5 pm on the 5th.
- A renter is trustworthy. A tenant does not sneak in a co-tenant or pet.
- A tenant is fussy about cleanliness. A renter does not bring pests like rodents and bugs.
- A renter does not misuse the home.
- A renter is courteous and pleasant to work with. A renter understands the difference between a property manager and a hotel concierge.
- A renter doesn't bother neighbors.
- A tenant reports problems when appropriate. tenants that don't report maintenance issues cost landlords money and cause problems for property managers.
- A renter doesn't gripe when it's not appropriate. This means that a renter doesn't demand to upgrade functioning systems. A renter 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 rental term that is as long as the owner wants to rent the property.
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 difficult renters.
Our Five Step Process
Fair Housing Laws and our conscience dictates that we do not judge potential tenants in Compton Valley Estates based upon appearance. Experience has taught us that appearances can be very decieving. We do however assess applicants based upon their history and their actions. If a applicant is difficult with us at the beginning, they will probably be rude as renters. If a lies, we can expect them to be untrustworthy as a tenant. If a has a problem scrounging up fundsfor background fees and the first month of rent, we can expect that same potential tenant will have difficulty while they are in the rental.
But even when every action initially is promising we still vet 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

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