Tenant screening is a critical component of successful property management, ensuring that landlords find reliable and responsible tenants who will pay rent on time and maintain the property well. RentEasily.ca provides comprehensive tenant screening services designed to minimize the risks associated with renting out properties. Here’s a detailed overview of what our tenant screening process includes:

1. Background Checks

We conduct thorough background checks to verify the identity and assess the history of potential tenants. This includes:

• Criminal Background Check: Ensuring that the tenant has no serious criminal records that could pose a risk to the property or other tenants.
• Eviction History: Checking if the tenant has been evicted from previous properties, which could indicate potential issues.

2. Credit History

A detailed credit check is performed to evaluate the financial stability of the tenant. This involves:

• Credit Score: Reviewing the tenant’s credit score to assess their reliability in managing finances.
• Debt-to-Income Ratio: Ensuring the tenant has a manageable level of debt relative to their income, indicating they can afford the rent.
• Payment History: Looking at past payment behavior on loans, credit cards, and other financial obligations to predict future reliability.

3. Employment Verification

We verify the employment status and income of potential tenants to ensure they have a stable source of income. This includes:

• Income Verification: Confirming the tenant’s current income through pay stubs, tax returns, or direct employer verification.
• Employment Stability: Assessing the length of employment and job stability to predict continued financial stability.

4. Rental History

Understanding the tenant’s previous rental behavior is crucial. We contact past landlords to gather information about:

• Rental Payments: Confirming that the tenant consistently paid rent on time.
• Property Care: Ensuring the tenant maintained previous rental properties in good condition.
• Behavior: Gathering insights into the tenant’s behavior and relationship with neighbors and landlords.

5. Personal References

In addition to formal checks, we also reach out to personal references provided by the tenant. This helps to gain additional insights into their character and reliability.
