Avoid the NIGHTMARE tenant and eviction: My Tenant screening process

Рет қаралды 286,868

Here is my screening process when looking for a tenant. As a landlord and Realtor, I have leased HUNDREDS of places - these are the red flags I've noticed and how I now go about selecting the best tenants. Enjoy! Snapchat/Instagram: GPStephan
1 .Bad Credit Score. This is something I can sometimes let slide depending on the situation, but generally this is a red flag. A credit report and score shows you how responsible your tenant is paying their bills and loans. Often times if you see they’re behind on car payments, medical bills, have liens or judgements against them…chances are, they’re not going to be an ideal tenant. Now every situation is different and each case is treated individually. But generally speaking, if they’re consistently late on their bills, have large amounts in collections, and otherwise they don’t care - pass.
2.The next red flag is when the tenant has a lot of unreported income. First of all, regular cash deposits are usually an immediate red flag that something is sketchy, and the type of person who does this for the purposes of avoiding the IRS is already not someone I want to associate myself with. But generally with cash income comes infrequent income, and this is the type of tenant who might not have rent every month. Usually this type of tenant is doing something sketchy, it might not be sustainable, and it’ll be inconsistent. They could also be trying to hide from collections by keeping what they need to in cash, so I suggest looking closely at avoiding this person.
3. The next one is wanting to move in ASAP. Although this isn’t always a red flag, this is something I’m extremely weary about. This is something I take on a case-by-case basis. Some times the tenant just didn’t have time to find a place and their lease is up…that’s cool if you can verify it. Other tenants just want to get the house hunt out of the way by locking something down ASAP and then having an overlap, that’s cool to. But there are other tenants who are in the process of being evicted or forced out of their last home and just need somewhere to move immediately and use this as a negotiating point for landlords. Be weary of someone willing to move in immediately, it could be fine or it could be a way for a tenant to lock something down before they’re evicted. Find out why they’re moving and if you trust that’s the truth.
4.The next is not providing their previous landlord’s information or lying on their application. Many tenants refuse to put their landlords information on their applications. Many times they’ll have an excuse like they aren’t on good terms, its a he said she said story, or they don’t want to tell their landlord that they’re moving…in any event, it’s an immediate red flag and seems sketchy to me. If they’re not providing their landlords information, they’re withholding information from you to make an informed decision about this tenant. Many tenants will also lie on their applications and put someone else’s number who will pretend to be the owner. If this happens, immediately cut them off…this happens way more than you’d think.
5.Doesn’t show u on time or doesn’t pay on time. Hopefully this happens BEFORE you sign a lease with them. If the tenant doesn’t show up on time for an appointment, this is something you should consider. Generally the people who don’t show up on time will not be the type to pay on time. Make it a priority for the tenant to pay on time. Another one is if the tenant doesn’t pay their deposit or first months rent on time…if they make an excuse early on, take this as a sign that they aren’t the right tenant for you.
6.Trust your gut - if you feel uneasy about someone, go with your intuition. I really believe that your intuition will pick up things that a logical approach will not…if you feel uneasy about a tenant, trust it. Even if everything logically checks out, it’s important you feel confident and sure of your decision on a gut level as well.
If you follow the above, you’ll be in a much better position to pick the right tenant.

B Lee Yes that's exactly correct. They think cause you're close friends or related to you and can pay whenever is convenient for them, or that late fees or pet deposits don't apply to them. And if you have multiple properties they assume you're swimming in money and should be there as charity case for them.

I've been renting properties for nearly 30 years and this is almost exactly my process as well. Only times I ever made a really bad decision on a tenant was early on when I didn't listen to that little voice in my head saying; "Don't rent to them" because I was anxious to get the place rented. My mantra is: A BAD tenant is far worse that NO tenant, so don't be in a rush.

I know one building that had fifty empty apartments until they started renting to anyone figuring out they made more money letting a few bad ones slip through than having a quarter of the building empty. Most tenants who pay every month and don't harm a place will find an appreciative landlord even if nine out of ten won't rent to them due to their credit or whatever. Capitalism works even in housing.

IF, you are doing your own interviews... here is a simple thing you can add in. Take a look at their vehicle. (You should have the plate number on the application anyway) If they claim they are not smokers for example - and there is a pack on the dash or seat or an overflowing ashtray - well, you know there's a wee bit of deception goin' on ;) If the vehicle obviously has not been taken care of, hasn't been washed in a year or two, bald or mismatched tires, broken/missing windows, 4 inches of trash on the floor, out of state plates, 2 year old registration tags, a dog that somehow didn't get mentioned or other interesting details that might contribute to your decision... Trust is pretty damn important, any little indication that it might be a bit wobbly - is enough to make you step back. NEVER be desperate to fill a place. You will spend months of misery trying to undo what you might have stepped into - and that doesn't count the actual cash you can lose in the process.

Thanks Graham. Over the years I've found that people can be very deceptive - on their best behavior and dressed for the model citizen part they are playing - but they generally forget little details in and on their vehicle. (Because they don't expect you to wander out to check the license plate as they are leaving ;) Lots of little clues there if you are observant. (Yeah, all bets are are off if they just rented a nice clean luxury car to roll up in, but I've only ever seen that happen once and the plate frame gave it away) How they take care of the exterior/interior of their vehicle is generally a pretty good indication of how they will take care of the outside & inside of your property... Good on you that you finally have a fairly flawless group of renters now. Don't let up on your requirements! They are working!

I was a leasing agent/resident manager for a large Canadian residential rental company and I found even when all the boxes are ticked off, it's no guarantee that these 'perfect on paper' tenants won't become a nightmare at some point during their lease. Crazy enough, I've had professionals such as police officers and lawyers be some of the worst experiences in my career. On the flip-side, I've had welfare recipients be absolutely great and problem free. In the renting hierarchy I was working in, I didn't have final say but I could vouch for those who didn't present as a perfect renter on paper. My intuition worked well 96% of the time (keeping in mind that I was renting for high volume multi-complexes). The worst are squatters whom don't even have a rental agreement with the property owner - somehow the law protects these people and it takes forever to get rid of them. They get months to take appliances and sell them and trash the place beyond recognition and be all smug because they can get away with it before the courts decides to deal with them (at least this is true in Alberta, Canada). Anyways, personally I wouldn't qualify for your rentals based on your criteria but it's your business how you want to screen your tenants. I would just like to say, however, that not all that appears perfect will stay that way. And sometimes, it's worth the risk to rent to those who may have credit problems or who are in a lower income bracket because there ARE people who are grateful to have a good home and make paying rent and being a good neighbour a high priority in their lives.

Aside from the legal implications of being too "picky," landlords who rent to the wrong people because they look good on paper get what they deserve. I laugh whenever I see a story of a tenant like that. Better things to look for: can they handle the fire, gas, and water? Do they have a lot of visitors? As for tenants with previous evictions, a blanket policy like that could be construed as blacklisting. Landlords have gotten arrogant because most tenants don't know their legal rights. Run into one who does and your profits can easily be wiped out by legal bills.

I've noticed the tendency recently for apartments to specify that the monthly income be 3x the rent. It makes sense. When you have to use government subsidies to be able to afford a decent place, your rent is calculated so that it doesn't exceed 30% of your income. I also don't make much money and have never missed a payment.

As a foreigner it’s always difficult to find a place to rent, especially those managed by property managers. They don’t seem to understand or accept the fact that there are people who are legally residing in the United States that doesn’t have social security numbers. My husband has ssn and excellent credit score (740+). But simply because I don’t have ssn, we sometimes get rejected instantly they need everyone in the household to have ssn. Fact is, we have never missed a rent payment and always leave the property cleaner than we moved in.

I definitely got a lot out of listening to you. The part where you mentioned Facebook was mind blowing. The mental health crisis is something else we're looking at right now and this needs to be minded as a landowner who lives on the property. The opioid epidemic is exacerbated now, but things like withholding cash from bank accounts and maxed out credit potentially hint toward that. Meeting in person is so important before accepting the deposit and first month before signing, because not everyone is an addict. However, the shifty behavior of omitting cash from institutions are telling about a person who is financially irresponsible.

Now I'm really curious about the good signs from a tenant who may be less than perfect by standard means. I.e. the roommates with cosigners or who don't quite meet the 3x income but seem perfect everywhere else or those with poor credit but the right attitude. Is it good if they come prepared with backup such as letters of recommendation or the willingness to pay for an extra month or would this be suspicious? Or does it all simply come down to your gut? Mostly thinking of younger renters or the millennial crowd, what are the risks of taking on renters who have made their financial mistakes and are now working their way out of them and how are they mitigated? So much to learn!

@jessycoolnessable 5 жыл бұрын

As someone who is on the renting side I find it odd someone has multiple roommates that CANT meet the 3x the rent payment. If they all combine their income and can't make that much, then as a responsible adult they should look for a cheaper place. The places I have rented from do credit checks but if you have low credit then they might still give you a chance by making you pay a higher deposit (again with the verification that you make 3x the rent)

@JohnDoe-pf6qp 6 жыл бұрын

Worrying about credit scores is pointless, some people just don't use credit. I look for negatives on a credit report like evictions, collection accounts, and so forth. Disqualifying a potential tenant because they don't use credit is silly. Also, if you're renting in lower income areas holding out of a 720 FICO score is going to pretty much ensure you won't rent your property. I think asking people to give you bank statements is overly invasive of someone's privacy and I can promise you you've had good prospects walk away without even filling out an application over it. Verifying employment, while not a bad idea, is increasingly difficult. Most employers simply don't want to be sued and therefore and reluctant to provide information. Especially with larger employers if you call an employment verification number it can be quite a process to get any information. Also for liability reasons for yourself when talking with other landlords I'd recommend keeping any information you give in the realm of what is factual and objectively verifiable. Opinions can get you sued.

Lenders ask for the same thing. Bank statements, employment verification, credit scores. It's good he is being protective as a landlord. So many schemers out there.

@JohnDoe-pf6qp 6 жыл бұрын

A property owner isn't a lender, nor are they a "landlord" as we don't have a system of feudalism in the US. Check someone's credit for negatives, look at their pay stubs, but you don't need to see their bank statements. It's not really any of your business what a tenant spends their money on. Besides, at the end of the day it's really easy to create phony bank statements and pay stubs.

@EmDeePhotography 6 жыл бұрын

As a realtor myself, I come across many, many people who do lie on their applications. I see nothing wrong with going the extra mile as a landlord to ensure you are getting the right tenant. In my opinion, a landlord should be detail orientated just like a lender. It's their house they are letting you live in, so you should have no problem putting up the extra docs. EDITED TO NOTE: I have seen 4 people get caught creating fake paystubs. There is nothing wrong with going over and beyond.

@JohnDoe-pf6qp 6 жыл бұрын

I've been renting properties for many years now. A lot of people lie on applications because unreasonable owners tend to force them to do so. As with many things it cuts both ways. Starting off a tenant owner relationship with unreasonable demands is going to cost tenants because from a tenant's point of view this kind of nonsense screams nightmare owner that's going to be stopping by the property twice a week. The tenant is also interviewing you because an owner without tenants isn't in any better of a place than a tenant without a property. Graham didn't need to see bank statements to see his problem tenant before they moved in, the credit report showed wild financial and personal instability. The reality of the situation is, especially for first time owners with first rental properties, unrealistic expectations for what your tenant is going to look like can have devastating financial consequences. So the short of it is waiting for someone with a huge income and 800 FICO score to rent your two bedroom in an iffy neighborhood is going to be a long wait.

As a tenant myself it was pretty much standard to have bank statements going back 3 months (a few very picky landlords required up to 6), they would also run a credit report on you, or if you were really with it, you should have a print up with you. I actually started doing this myself when looking for roommates. My score was often high enough my landlord would let me take on a lower scored roommate onto the lease without letting me know they had a bad score. The worst roommates I had to deal with I later found out had terrible credit scores, so this is actually a good idea. Another common thing was if landlords allowed less than a 700 credit score (usually 630 or above) they also ask for 1st and last month's rent, plus a full rent's worth of security deposit up front. So that's 3 month's total worth of rent you need to bring with you, along with your income and credit report at the table before you sign the lease. Its the exact same process you're going to see when getting a loan for a house, car, new line of credit etc. So this is standard behavior. It also shows that the landlords are following fair housing rules and denying leases only on financial status as opposed to anything else.

@rebekahc.1402 4 жыл бұрын

Background check, credit check, reference check, pay stubs, have to make at least 2.5x rent, deposit (holding fee) had to be paid within 24 hours of filling out the application in certified funds, first month rent is due upon move in with certified funds. More restrictions than the last place I rented but it's nice, quiet, and walking distance to work, stores, bus, etc. Also makes me feel like my neighbors will likely be nice and responsible individuals.

+hihaters2004 - I get what the "average" credit score for a tenant likely is; however, all due respect, I think you're depriving yourself with the rather low expectations of tenants. There are a lot of tenants out there with good credit but for their own reasons don't care to own. I have 825 credit score (no, this is NOT an exaggeration) and am a confirmed lifelong renter. I won't buy a house for about ten reasons (just three of which are: I don't want to be tied down to one location unable to sell if I want to move, if you're a *careful and patient* apartment hunter you can get NICE places for less than maint + property tax would cost in nice areas, and I HATE commuting so every time I take a new job I get a cheap, nice place like across the street from the job - literally where I am now). I love being at the top of the list of applicants anywhere I choose to live but wouldn't be so if I hadn't been lucky enough to get landlords who were patient enough not to snatch the first "acceptable" tenant with a 680 credit score. Bottom line: my opinion is that your waiting for a tenant with a really good credit score and super references is a win-win situation for both of you, and you should raise your expectations.
