Tenant Screening
We work hard to find the right tenant for your investment
How We Screen Your Rental Applicants
At First Command Property Management, our goal is to rent your investment property quickly — but more importantly, to find the right tenant. Taking the time upfront to carefully screen applicants ensures a positive, stress-free experience for everyone involved.
Many believe that tenant screening only involves a quick credit check and employment verification, but our process goes far beyond that. We conduct a thorough, high-quality screening that includes:
- Credit Check
- Employment verification
- Debt-to-income ratio analysis
- Eviction history check
- Criminal history check
- Previous landlord references
We don’t base our decisions solely on credit scores. Instead, we take a comprehensive look at each applicant to ensure they are the best fit for your property. This proven approach has led to long-term success and satisfied property owners.
