What we seek in Edsall Park renters
In Edsall Park, our team likes to work with good tenants. Here are a few of the traits we look for.
- 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 renter does not sneak in a co-renter or pet.
- A renter is fussy about cleanliness. A renter does not attract pests like rodents and bugs.
- A renter does not destroy the property or its systems.
- A renter is courteous and nice to work with. A renter understands the difference between a property manager and a hotel concierge.
- A tenant doesn't bother neighbors.
- A renter complains at appropriate times. tenants that don't report maintenance issues cost landlords money and cause head-aches for property managers.
- A renter doesn't gripe when it's not appropriate. This means that a tenant doesn't ask 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 tenant doesn't know how to operate the appliance.
- A tenant does not smoke in the rental.
- A tenant is looking for a lease that is as long as the real estate investor wants to rent the rental.
So this is what we're looking for in a tenant, but how do we find tenants who live up to this ideal? 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 troublesome renters.
Our Five Step Process
Fair Housing Laws and our conscience dictates that we do not judge people in Edsall Park based upon appearance. Experience has taught us that appearances can be very decieving. We do however assess applicants based upon their reputation and their actions. If a applicant is difficult with us at the start, they will probably be difficult as renters. If a is dishonest, we will expect them to be unreliable as a tenant. If a has difficulty producing fundsfor background fees and the first month of rent, we will expect that same person will have difficulty while they are in the rental.
But even when every statement initially is promising we still vet every potential tenant with a complete background check. Every applicant 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
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
