Tenant Screening

Allowing an unfamiliar tenant to live in your rental property carries inherent risks, but our thorough tenant screening process significantly minimizes the likelihood of leasing to an unreliable individual. Additionally, with our routine inspections every five months, we ensure your property is being properly maintained throughout the lease term.

What is Tenant Screening?
Tenant screening is designed to reduce the risks landlords face, such as missed rent payments or property damage. At The Phoenix Area Real Estate, we offer comprehensive tenant screening services for all our property management and leasing clients throughout the Valley of the Sun.

This detailed process allows us to safeguard your property and maximize the likelihood of a positive, long-term tenant-landlord relationship.

    Our tenant screening services include evaluating the following criteria:

  • Credit Score

    We review the credit score of potential tenants to assess their ability to make timely rent payments.

  • Current Employment Status

    We confirm a tenant’s current employment status to ensure they have stable income, which is key to consistent rent payments.

  • Rental History

    We verify each applicant’s rental history to ensure your property is leased to responsible tenants with a proven track record.

  • Broken Lease

    If a tenant has previously broken a lease or rental agreement, our screening process identifies this, helping you avoid higher-risk applicants.

  • Digital Bank Account Analytics

    Applicants connect digitally to their bank to provide a full picture of their financial health.

    • Payroll Income
    • Other Income (i.e. gig income)
    • Government Income
    • Average monthly balances over past 12 months
  • Outstanding Debt Balances

    Our tenant screening process includes checking for any current debts that the candidate has neglected to pay.

  • Past Eviction

    A past eviction could be an indicator that a candidate is not a reliable tenant. We check each tenant’s history to determine whether they’ll be faithful to make payments on time.

  • Past Foreclosure

    It is concerning when a candidate has records of foreclosure, so we make sure to investigate this when considering a tenant for your property.

  • Suspicious Criminal Background

    We want to protect your property from risky tenants, so our screening process includes conducting thorough background checks on each candidate to determine if there is any documented criminal activity on an applicant’s record.

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.
