Smart Rental Tip - Tenant Screening

Thursday, April 01, 2010
If you own rental property sometimes it can feel like a shot in the dark to select the right tenant. Here is a great tip that goes a long way towards preventing rental income loss.
 
A few years ago I found a company called Tenant Verification Service, based right here in the lower mainland. Their service allows you to pull a credit report for potential tenants allowing you to make an informed decision. It costs about $50 and it became and invaluable tool in helping me find great tenants.
 
Sign up at www.tenantverification.com and you'll be able to screen tenants, helping with the selection process, and giving you great peace of mind. (They also have a great rental application you can download and print.)
 
If you are considering purchasing a rental property give us a call, we have knowledge and experience in arranging the very best investment financing. You'll also have access to a great network of professionals who specialize in investment real estate.
