Screening Tenants

Background Check

Understanding the civil and criminal history of your tenants is of utmost importance. For this reason, we apply background checks to ALL of our applicants.

Income verification

Proving income sources is vital to placing a tenant that will follow through with their lease agreement. Verifying income is a nonnegotiable with our screening process.

Rental History

It has been said that the best way to predict the future is by revisiting the past. We take that mindset and apply it to our process of successfully placing tenants into our properties.

Credit

In the financial world, you have two choices, money, or credit. In our case, we take a holistic approach to screening with both cash and credit carefully reviewed.

Frequently Asked Questions

The screening process is new to some. Below you'll find our most asked questions.

Do all tenants go through a background check

Yes. All tenants will go through a thorough 3rd party background check before being placed in any of our units.

How often do evictions occur?

Evictions in our properties occur less than some clients expect. Reducing the likelihood of an eviction starts with proper screening. Often, we have more complications when taking on inherited tenants which we did not personally vet.

Is Jason Scott Realty equipped for an eviction?

Yes. Unfortunately, evictions are necessary at times. The professionals at JSRM are familiar with local and state guidelines for these situations. We also enlist the help of local law firms when needed.

Who pays for the screening of tenants?

The prospective tenant will pay this cost.
