How to Obtain a Good Tenant

Make sure your rental application needs the potential renter to list the previous landlord's phone, the reason for leaving previous place, any bankruptcies or foreclosures. Obtain the tenant's employment status and get contact details for the employer. All these things will help you screen your prospective tentants.

Another reason is that nice tenants would always pay in-time. This will let you pay bills like mortgage & other operating costs without any delays. As a landlord, you got to follow a method in selecting your prospects. This is the way you can filter your candidates. Read through their personal information & their rental background. Check the demographics as well as their hobbies. So that you can get all the information you need, make your own application form. In the event you can afford to perform a credit inquiry, do it. But take note, you may must ask the permission of your applicant to do any of these.

Hi,

How do you tell the tenants that you are not accepting them? Especially those with criminal record?

Are these screening services giving you any suggestions like: 'you should not accept this tenant or that it's ok to accept him"...

I am totally clueless, I've never done it and I want to do it as simple as possible and also be able to reject them if i have to.

Thanks a lot,
this forum is very useful

A good tenant also needs a good landlord. Make sure to keep your reputation clean to potential tenants. The final word on finding a good tenant will have to rest with the individual property owner.

If you want the applicant to pay for the credit report, you can ask the applicant to pay. The best way to ensure the safety of your property is by conducting credit and history check on your prospective tenant.

If you used the past conditional (pour convaincre les proprietaires que j'aurais été un bon locataire) it would mean "to convince the landlords that I would have been a good tenant."

You can think of this sentence in terms of "discours indirect" or "related speech": telling what someone else said. Imagine that in 2005 you were a Harvard student doing a junior year abroad. You're telling the story of how you managed to get an apartment while you were abroad:

The real estate agents said, "He is a student at Harvard, so he will be a good tenant."
The real estate agents said that I was a student at Harvard, so I would be a good tenant.

Note how we transform the verb tenses when we convert from a direct quotation to the indirect form. "He will be" (future) becomes "I would be" (present conditional). The exact same transformation happens in French. The fact that it all happened in the past is taken into account by the way you start the sentence with "the agents said" and by the way you transform the verb tenses.
