Our Five Step Process
Fair Housing Laws and our conscience dictates that we do not judge potential tenants in Alexandria based upon appearance. Experience has taught us that appearances can be very decieving. We do however judge potential renters based upon their reputation and their actions. If a applicant is difficult with our staff at the outset, they will probably be rude as renters. If a lies, we can expect them to be unreliable as a tenant. If a has troubles scrounging up money for background fees and the first month of rent, we will expect that same applicant will have problems while they are in the rental.
But even when every action initially is good we still check the background of every potential renter with a complete background check. Every potential renter and occupant must submit a government-issue photo identification. From there, as rental we start our vetting process.
How we protect the landlord’s interests in Alexandria:

"I am by nature a trusting person, but this business has taught me to verify every statement that a tenant makes. Scammers and bad tenants can sometimes give every appearance of being trustworthy and upright people. We never cut corners on background checks." ~ Will Nesbitt

I like tenants that pay on time. Late paying tenants cause extra work and unnecessary stress for landlords and property managers. ~ Julie Nesbitt
