Top questions to ask a prospective tenant!

Reference questions that you can ask when a tenant applies to rent from you.

On a scale of 1 to 10 how clean are they? It’s actually the tens that I worry about. If people are so much a perfectionist your rental may never be good enough for them no matter how much you do for them.

Would you rent to them again?

If you were me would you rent to them?

Did they pay their rent on time in full every month?

How long were they your tenants? You’d like to find some tenants that actually have some Long Jevity and don’t just jump around from one place to another.

Did they leave the place clean when they left? Where there any damages to the property when they left?

Did you have any complaints from neighbours about any noise or disturbances?

Would you rent them your own house?

When you’re talking to the employer you could ask them if they felt that they would be able to pay the rent of blank. If the guys only making 1500 a month and his rent is 1000 unless there’s a wife working he’s probably not going to be able to swing that. It’s a gentle way of asking how much the guy makes.
Also ask him if he’s a good worker and shows up on time? Really want to know if he is actually going to have a job so that he can pay your rent.
