Landlord Video Tips – Screening Your Tenants

February 18, 2013 By Landlord Education

Screening Your Tenants –
Make It a Priority!

Once you let a tenant into your property, you could be stuck with them for better or worse. So why not make sure it’s for better?

Diligently screening your tenants can make the difference between months of late payments and arguments or having the best possible tenants out there.

This quick video gives you some reminders and pointers to watch out for!

Are you screening your tenants? Are you screening them well?

It’s one of the biggest challenges new landlords run into. They don’t know the tricks bad tenants use to fool landlords, the tricks they use to get great referrals (fake referrals that is) and they have no clue where to find, how to read or what to do about credit reports.

Yet mastering that should probably be their first priority.

If you can master finding good tenants who will make your property better, with fewer headaches, less problems and typically stay longer, wouldn’t you make that a priority?

That’s where a good screening process comes into play and is what I talk about in the video.

It’s also why I created my How To Screen Tenants Like An Educated Landlord Course. I used to offer this as a simple five email course, but I decided to ramp it up a couple years ago to make it a simple step by step process to help more landlords get good tenants.

And that meant more than just the basics.

With my course I start teaching you about screening your tenants by showing you how to write ads that attract the best tenants, that do some of your screening for you to make your job easier and to help stop deadbeat tenants from even bothering to call.

Then I teach you what to ask and why. This is part of the 7 Questions That Landlords Need To Ask guide, just much more in depth.

From there you go all the way through the paperwork process, secrets about releasing keys and even what to do with applicants who you’ve rejected.

If you’re a landlord who’s ever had problems finding good tenants, this course will make you wonder why you didn’t know about it sooner.
