What we look for in Edinburg Square renters
In Edinburg Square, our management staff prefers to work with reliable renters. Here are some of the traits we expect.
- A tenant 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 tenant does not sneak in a co-tenant or pet.
- A tenant is fastidious. A tenant does not attract pests such as rodents and bugs.
- A tenant does not destroy the property or its systems.
- A tenant is courteous and pleasant to work with. A renter understands the difference between a property manager and a hotel concierge.
- A renter doesn't disturb neighbors.
- A renter reports problems at appropriate times. tenants that don't report maintenance issues cost landlords money and cause problems for property managers.
- A tenant doesn't complain when it's not appropriate. This means that a renter doesn't ask to replace functioning systems. A renter doesn't expect more than the lease provides. A renter 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 property.
- A tenant is looking for a lease that is as long as the real estate investor wants to rent the home.
So this is what we're looking for in a tenant, but how do we find renters who live up to this standard? Experience has taught us that bad renters can appear as polite, nicely-dress, well educated people with jobs. We have a knack for sniffing out bad tenants.
Our Five Step Process
Fair Housing Laws and our conscience dictates that we do not judge potential renters in Edinburg Square 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 rude to our managers from the beginning, they will probably be trying as renters. If a is dishonest, we will expect them to be dishonest as a tenant. If a has troubles producing certified fundsfor background fees and the first month of rent, we can expect that same potential tenant will have difficulty during the lease.
But even if every action initially is promising we still vet each potential tenant 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
