Our Five Step Process
Fair Housing Laws and our conscience dictates that we do not judge people in Springfield based upon appearance. Experience has taught us that appearances can be very decieving. We do however judge potential tenants based upon their track record and their actions. If a applicant is difficult with our managers at the start, they will probably be difficult as tenants. If a is caught fabricating facts, we can expect them to be untrustworthy as a tenant. If a has difficulty finding money for background fees and the first month of rent, we can expect that same applicant will have troubles during the lease.
But even if every appearance initially is promising we still check the background of each potential renter with a full background check. Every person and occupant must provide a government-issue photo identification. From there, as rental we start our vetting process.
How we protect the landlord’s interests in Springfield:

"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
