Screening Services

     Owners of rental property consistently state they want good quality tenants who will care for their home. One of the important steps getting this is a thorough screening Process. Their was a time that a handshake and a few calls would be sufficient, but not anymore.      Dishonesty has gotten sophisticated and they perpetrators will not make it as easy as our friend here!

     So if you before you turn over possession of your home worth 10’s or 100’s of Thousand dollars it is important to do a little homework. If your plan is to get a pay a stub and call the numbers given as employer and previous landlord, you should consider the hundreds of sites dedicated to making fake paystubs (remember Low Doc Loans) and the availability of disposable phones.
