Tenant Screening

We work hard to find the right tenant for your investment

How We Screen Your Rental Applicants

Sarasota Tenant Screening

One of the most important aspects of property management is the selection of a tenant. We realize that if we place a high quality, long-term resident, who pays their rent on time, and takes care of the property - everyone benefits. The results of our industry leading screening process speak for themselves.

We have processed over 30,000 rental applications so we know exactly what to look for (and what to avoid) in a high- quality resident. 99.5% of our tenants pay rent each month and our eviction rate is less than 1% per year.

Relax Property Management’s 15 point applicant screening process:

  1. Personally meet the prospective tenant at the property. The interviewing process starts there.
  2. Income Verification
  3. Employment verification
  4. Credit Check
  5. Pre-qualification questions
  6. Eviction Check
  7. Prior Landlord Verification
  8. Sex Offender Check
  9. Public Records for every county they resided in according to background check (we manually do this check as well as computer generated)
  10. Criminal Check
  11. Bankruptcy Check
  12. Pet Verification
  13. Social Media search - often we know friends of theirs and can call them
  14. Google search with each city that they resided in
  15. Review Collections History

Our screening process is not just based on a credit score only - we take a comprehensive look at the overall applicant. This process has proven to be extremely successful.
