Expert Landlord Advice

Category: Tenant Screening

Learn about the importance of doing proper screening to find the best tenant for your rental. Selecting the tenants best suited for your rental property is critical for landlords. Failing to do so can mean at the very least unhappy tenants and an unhappy landlord, but also possibly lost revenue in unpaid rent, expensive property damages, or a costly and time-consuming eviction process.

Tenant screening and credit reports can offer insight into your prospective tenant or applicant about what kind of tenant they will be. Do they pay their rent on time? Have they had problems with other landlords or residents in the past? Are they stretched too thin to pay rent every month?

We examine the pros and cons of various screening and credit reporting services. We have also reviewed and compared several of the top property management software products to try and find the best tenant screening service for small landlords.

Find downloadable rental criteria checklists and pre-screening questions to ask prospective tenants. Read reviews, compare products and pricing, and find the best screening service for your needs.
