Our Five Step Process
Fair Housing Laws and our conscience dictates that we do not judge applicants in Occoquan based upon appearance. Experience has taught us that appearances can be very decieving. We do however judge potential tenants based upon their reputation and their actions. If a applicant is difficult with our staff from the start, 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 scrounging up fundsfor background fees and the first month of rent, we will expect that same potential renter will have problems during the lease.
But even if every action initially is good we still check the background of every applicant with a complete background check. Every person and occupant must submit a government-issue photo identification. From there, as rental we start our vetting process.
How we protect the landlord’s interests in Occoquan:

"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
