Furthermore, our extensive initial process of renting out your unit is designed to uphold the integrity of your property. All prospective tenants must complete both background and credit checks, in addition to verifying their monthly income. Potential renters must also provide an initial security deposit, as well as utility receipts that show services being placed in their name at the lease signing. All of these steps protect our homeowners and their valuable assets and give you the peace of mind you’d expect when working with a professional rental management entity.
