What is usually looked for in tenants?
1. Stability of employment – this will give you an indication of whether the tenant will be likely to stay for the nominated lease period and whether they will have the funds to pay for it. 2. Good tenancy track record – this should reflect both areas in a positive way. 3. Good credit history – ability to pay the rent. 4. Property owner – ability to pay, as they pay their mortgage. 5. Avoid over crowding – ask about the number of people who will be living in the property. Over crowding can cause excessive wear and tear. 6. Avoid pets (unless you agree) – even the most well-behaved pets can cause damage. 7. Proof of identity – ask the property manager to take a photocopy of a drivers license..
