Hi everyone,
I was wondering if someone can shed some light on how they go about recruiting for a tenant. My IP is an inner city 2 bedroom unit in Melbourne.
Does anyone have a template they use when interviewing etc a new tenant? What would be some questions you want want to know about the prospective tenants history?
Thanks in advance
Kris.
Walk away from anybody who is not willing to provide 2 references that can be checked by a phone call. They should also freely give you enough employment details to let you feel confident about their ability to pay!
Interview???
You should have a comrehensive and SIGNED tenant application form. The signature is required to check their details on tenant default databases such as TICA and NTD. I can spend a whole day going through important questions and why you should ask them. Tenant selection is important. The worst tenants we have on our books are the ones selected by private landlords without the proper selection criteria. It may be worth using an experience property manager if you are unsure how to do it yourself.Thanks for the response guys.
Xenia – I'll definately be using a property manager, however I want to ensure that I dont end up paying for the "property managers" incompetence. Ultimately I would like to meet with the shortlisted applicants (by the property manager) and select the best applicant.
Keep the responses coming!
