Screening Your Tenants

At Ferris Property Management, our experience has taught us that screening tenants correctly is a key process in ensuring that you lease to the best possible tenants for your property. By having the right tenant, you can expect they will care for the property and pay the rent on time. We utilize a tenant pre-qualification system that allows us to narrow down the right tenant pool. Then we thoroughly screen all tenants using our tested screening criteria to ensure that we get the most qualified tenant for your property. One thing that we seriously consider when screening tenants is their ability to pay rent and research their history as a tenant. The steps we take include:

1. We verify the prospective tenant’s income and establish whether the tenant’s claims are true by verifying their income sources.
2. We inquire about their history of employment to determine their ability to pay.
3. We check the prospective tenant’s credit history and determine their credit score.
4. We check if the tenant has a history of evictions because many times if a tenant has violated the terms of the lease once, they are likely to do it again.
5. We check if the tenant has a history of delinquency by making it mandatory for tenants to provide us with references to their existing and prior landlords.
6. We establish if the tenant has a criminal background to assess whether the applicant is a sexual offender.

Utilizing these methods have helped to make us successful in getting our clients’ properties filled with high-quality tenants – which means more high-quality, drama free tenants that are responsible, creditworthy, and pay on time.
