As a woman landlord, you are always searching for your ideal tenants.
Choosing the right tenant can be one of life's roulette spins - and you want to avoid landing on a bad bet.
So, more roll of the dice when picking tenants for your property.
As much as it sounds cliché –knowledge is power when managing a rental property.
You want to avoid tenants who will not pay their rent on time (or at all) and possibly destroy your property.
Getting familiar with those interested in renting your property will help you find dependable long-term tenants.
When reviewing applications, ask yourself:
Do they meet my criteria?
Do you have written criteria?
Is there evidence that this tenant will keep up on payments and maintain the condition of my property?
Knowing exactly how to evaluate potential renters can help take away some stress while ensuring maximum cash flow from your rental business!
To narrow down applicants and find high-quality long-term tenants, you need to know what to look for.
I have compiled this simple checklist to help you decide when to deny an application and quickly move on to the next applicant.
