How We Screen Your Rental Applicants

Our goal is to find the right fit for each property, not simply the first applicant through the door. Placing the wrong person in a home creates stress and frustration for everyone involved, and it is a situation we work hard to avoid on behalf of our property owners and our community.

A thorough screening process requires looking at the full picture of an applicant. Many assume a quick credit check and employment verification are sufficient, but genuine diligence goes further than that. At Welcome Home Management Inc., we review each application comprehensively, examining the following:

• Credit history and overall credit profile
• Employment and income verification
• Debt to income ratios
• Eviction history
• Criminal background
• Previous landlord references

No application is evaluated on a single factor. We take a holistic view of every prospective resident, because the right placement protects your investment, supports a positive living environment, and builds the kind of long-term tenancy that benefits everyone. This process has consistently proven its value across the properties we manage throughout the Bay Area.
