How We Screen Your Rental Applicants
At Legacy Property Management, we know that the right tenant makes all the difference. While renting quickly is important, securing a qualified and reliable resident is the key to long-term success. That’s why we prioritize finding the best tenant—not just the fastest one.
Many landlords believe screening is as simple as checking credit and verifying employment, but we go much further. Our comprehensive tenant screening process includes:
- Full credit history review
- Employment and income verification
- Debt-to-income ratio analysis
- Eviction history check
- Criminal background check
- Previous landlord references
Rather than relying on credit scores alone, we evaluate the complete picture of every applicant to ensure they meet our high standards. This thorough process consistently results in better tenants who stay longer, care for the property, and pay rent on time—giving you peace of mind and stronger returns on your investment.
