What we seek in Rolling_Valley tenants
In Rolling_Valley, our management staff likes to deal with reliable renters. Here are some of the traits we look for.
- A renter 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 renter does not sneak in a co-tenant or pet.
- A renter is neat. A renter does not attract pests such as rodents and bugs.
- A tenant does not destroy systems.
- A renter is courteous and easy to get along with. A renter understands the difference between a property manager and a hotel concierge.
- A tenant doesn't bother neighbors.
- A tenant reports problems at appropriate times. Renters that don't report maintenance issues cost property owners money and cause issues for property managers.
- A renter doesn't gripe 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 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 property.
So this is what we're looking for in a tenant, but how do we find tenants who measure 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 nose for sniffing out tardy tenants.
Our Five Step Process
Fair Housing Laws and our conscience dictates that we do not judge potential renters in Rolling_Valley based upon appearance. Experience has taught us that appearances can be very decieving. We do however assess people based upon their reputation and their actions. If a applicant is difficult with our managers at the outset, they will probably be troublesome as renters. If a is caught fabricating facts, we will expect them to be untrustworthy as a tenant. If a has difficulty producing money for background fees and the first month of rent, we will expect that same person will have difficulty during the lease.
But even when every statement initially is promising we still vet every potential renter with a complete background check. Every potential tenant 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
