EP. 1511 The secret tenant screening program that agents use

🗝️ Tenant screening — what REALLY gets you approvedIt’s not just about who offers the most rent. Great PMs are matchmakers: right tenant, right home, low risk for everyone. Here’s what matters:✅ Previous agent reference (the golden Q: “Would you rent to them again?”)✅ Verified rental ledger + payslips + bank savings (affordability)✅ Employer check (HR/payroll > a mate’s word)✅ Details that match (ID ↔️ address ↔️ prior property)👀 We’ll even glance at public socials for consistency.🚩 Red flags:• No agent ledger / can’t verify rental history• Affordability doesn’t stack up (big rent, one income, no savings)• Signs of covert subletting / too many occupants for the home🌟 Green flags:• Clean ledger • solid savings buffer • strong ref from a PM we trustPMs guide the call (≈70%), owners decide (~30%). Ask for feedback if you miss out—there’s always another rental around the corner.#propertymanagement #rentingtips #tenants #landlords #northernbeaches #novakproperties
