Our Five Step Process
Fair Housing Laws and our conscience dictates that we do not judge people in Shirley_acres based upon appearance. Experience has taught us that appearances can be very decieving. We do however judge potential tenants based upon their history and their actions. If a applicant is rude to our managers from the beginning, they will probably be difficult as tenants. If a makes false statements, we will expect them to be unreliable as a renter. If a has a problem finding money for background fees and the first month of rent, we can expect that same potential renter will have problems while they are in the rental.
But even if every appearance initially is promising we still check the background of each person with a complete background check. Every potential tenant 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
