Some Disgruntled Tenants Will Say Almost Anything to Get Out of a Lease..!

1 comment  | 

Did you hear this story about some angry tenants suing the owner…?

We as Property Managers do our best to make sure that any home or apartment that we lease up is in good condition.  This would include making sure all the appliances work, smoke and carbon monoxide detectors are installed.

We also like to make sure its clean and ready for occupancy.

As part of the process we do an extensive review of the Tenant Application(s) that include a credit/past evictions check, employment and income verification.   We might even ask for copies of bank statements if you are self employed to verify your ability to pay the rent.

But you know…with all that, there’s something new we’ve added as well… and that is the “google search” of your name if you apply to rent one our properties.    Because,  prior to doing a “google search”, and even with all the other research we’ve done, you can never predict with a 100 percent accuracy what a tenant will be like.  We feel that every bit of information we can get about a person will help us in our search for the right tenant.

So with that said, do you think the folks that are the subject of this article would be great tenants…?

You be the judge.   Here’s the story…

Another Bank Owned Property With Multiple Offers…!

Comments Off  | 

VIEWS… VIEWS…  VIEWS…

I held this home located at 820 Katie Way, El Dorado Hills open on Sunday, April 1st.   And you know…  It turned out to be one of those crisp & cool early Spring days with some light swirly winds.    Visibility was incredible I think because of the rains the day and evening before.

In other words… The day had a lot of energy and the Buyers were “out kicking tires” so to speak.   I thought I’d just share a short video that I took from the upstairs Bonus Room Deck.  From this point you could see Folsom Lake and the Skyline of Sacramento.   The video is not HD but I think you’ll get an idea of how nice a day and the view was from this place.

By the way… so far there are about 5 or 6 offers on it.    I’ll keep you posted.


In the Mean Time…?

More Craigslist Scams – If You Are a Landlord or a Prospective Tenant – Beware…!

Comments Off  | 

Another “Craigslist” story I have to share… even have a copy of the “email exchange”

I got a call from a lady a few days ago inquiring about a home for rent at 1327 Copping here in Folsom.  It’s a 5 bedroom 3 full bath home, about 2500 sq ft and rents for $2,350.oo per month.   This lady said she had answered the ad that had a rent offered at around $1,100 per month.

I think most people can spot a “rental scam” but maybe some can’t, so here’s some things that you might want to employ if you are looking to rent a home somewhere.

  • If the price of the rental is so much lower than other homes you have been looking at..?  It might be a scam.
  • If the Owner/Landlord only communicates with you by email..? It might be a scam.
  • If the Owner/Landlord will only accept cash or a “wire” transfer..? It might be a scam.
  • If the Owner/Landlord is “out of the country”…?  It might be a scam.
  • If you “google” the property address and find more contact information besides the person you’ve been communicating with…?  It might be a scam.
  • If the Owner/Landlord meets you at the property and doesn’t ask for an application and is ready to give you the keys right then and there if you give him the money…? It might be a scam.

In the mean time…?

Make it a Great Day..!
