TENANTS!!!! YOU are the purpose we are in the rental business, for without YOU, (the renter), there would be no need for property managers and/or property management companies.
There are many reasons that occupants RENT instead of buying.....
Whatever the reason may be, we'd like to be the Company YOU use to locate suitable housing. To assist you in your search, we have compiled a list of questions you can expect to be asked. This pre-screening will help determine placement. Remember... we work with selective owners who seek responsible occupants!
PRE-SCREENING QUESTIONS YOU MAY BE ASKED
How SOON are you looking to move? (If you do not need to move for another 3 months, we suggest you wait before calling because most of the rentals you see advertised now will not be available later).
WHERE? (Which neighborhoods are you considering?) We suggest you research communities prior to calling. Information regarding schools, crime, etc. is available at places such as City-Data.com
How is your CREDIT? Credit reports help us determine eligibility. You are entitled to a free report annually. You can access yours at Free Credit Report.com In cases of extremely poor credit, some owners will still allow rentals with money paid toward security deposits.
Are you ready with rent and security deposit MONEY SAVED? If you are serious about renting, prepare by having at least 2 months of the rental amount saved. Those that come qualified and having the money set aside are also the ones that get the unit if qualified. Most owners will not accept "hold money" with the exception of a short time periods. REMEMBER.... figure about 35 to 40% of your "NET" monthly income for rent payment!
How MANY will be occupying the rental? General housing "standards" dictate 2 per bedroom, plus an additional person for the living room. Adjustments are made for those with pre-school children. This question is asked to determine which available accommodations would be suitable and comfortable for the household size.
Do you have verifiable rent RECEIPTS? Handwritten rental payment receipts are not provable. Qualifying determinations for occupancy are made from credible sources. Come prepared to be screened!
WHY are you moving? Owners want to know the reason for your new move. Decisions to approve an applicant weigh on many factors. This is one of them.
If you are a rental voucher holder/user:
Do you have your "MOVE" papers? We have agents that can assist renters who are voucher holders, however, valid move paperwork and security deposit preparedness is needed prior to the search for new accommodations!
DISCLAIMER: This is not an exclusive list for qualifying. An analysis based upon full screening with document back-up and other verifying procedures will be followed. This partial compilation is only meant to serve as preliminary helpful information for potential renters.

This is being written to help encourage BELIEVERS. Come on now, saints.... God PROMISED you'd have tribulations upon this earth!! However, He also gave you a SURE WORD you can count on.... be of GOOD CHEER, for He has overcome the world!!
Just WHERE did you hide your faith? Go pick it back up - for you will need it in these trying times!! Don't you know it's a GOOD fight He's asked you to fight? Well, now, if you are cowering in some corner, afraid to enter into the ring, you'd never find out just how much of an OVERCOMER God has destined you to be! Will you? Get a hold of yourself! Remember how God faithfully rescued you time after faithful time?? HUH?? Sure you do... and what did you say, huh? You said..... THANK GAWD!!!!!
CERTAINLY He will do it again! How do i know?? Because HE KEEPS HIS WORD! He is NOT like me or you, for if He declared it.... it shall come to pass! Now, look at you! How are you acting, huh? Sssscared?? Well, it's embarrassing for you to call upon the Name of the Lord as you profess, and then negate everything HE IS by not believing!!! Oh ye of little bitty faith... IT IS TIME TO GROW UP!! Take that la-la land mentality out of your mind and replace those strongholds of fear with TRUST. You will never please God without believing HE can do it for you. Will you allow HIS precious blood spilled out for you be in vain?
Listen, hunnie.... Get a grip! Get up! That's right... divorce yourself from your "one-man-woe-is-me-pity-party!" God is NOT feeling sorry for you, for the blessing of the Lord maketh rich... HE adds NO SORROW! God is not dishing out pity... just compassion.... COME PASS ZION <---- that's what the cross did!
ATTENTION!!!! That's right, you are a SOLDIER... ATTENTION! STAND UP! This ain't the time to be at ease, child of the most high! Place your armour on.... ALL of it, and remember, the weapons of our warfare are not carnal... but mighty through God unto the pulling down of all of your fearful strongholds!

How does he do it? By {{{{{SSSSSCARING}}}}} you OUT of your stuff!! Don't allow another thing to be stolen!!
..... If The "devil" Can SCARE You... he Will RIP YOU OFF!!

Stumbled upon a CNN featured clip of one of Clark Howard's shows about rent prices. In the feature he introduces the "RENTOMETER" which analyzes rent prices according to the area.
Submit inquiry as either as a tenant or landlord, show the address, City, State, amount of rent, and apartment size. Find out if you are on the low end or high end! Have fun with it! The algorithm they use is supposed to keep the area searched as relevant as possible.
Caution: If entering info as a Landlord, you will be encouraged to sign up for their Property Management services. Check it out! Are you HIGH or LOW?
All feedback accepted!

We have left the Illinois (USA) and we are currently in the West Africa for a program called 'World Conference Against Racism Youth Summit, Empowering youth for combating racism, HIV/AIDS, Poverty and Lack of Education, the program is taking place in three major countries in Africa which is Sudan, Ghana and Nigeria. It has been a very sad and bad moment for me, the present condition that I found myself is very hard for me to explain.

Thanks and God bless you..

TO BE CONTINUED...............
85% of the property we manage for others are owned by investors from a different state, so it did not surprise us when someone from the East Coast contacted the office yesterday requesting property management. We went through the usual preliminary questioning....
After learning the property was a vacant single family home, our next question was, is it ready for occupancy? No? No problem, we have a second company, Rice & Rice that preps our rental property with excellent carpet cleaning, appliance cleaning, and painting. We'd be glad to service your need in that area if we take on the management. One of the benefits of having us do the managing is the special vendor rate just for owners! We can give you the free estimate at our first appointment!
What? You bought it for a steal, and it needs what????
Er, Uh, no, we don't do rehab. Once you get it up and running though, be sure to give us a call!

Commercial & Residential Property Management & Real Estate servicing Suburban Illinois & Northwest Indiana locations. Our clientele includes investors, owners, renters, buyers, and sellers.
We began our business after we received divine instructions: "start the business, and whatever you touch will turn to gold"! At the time, we were living in a basement apartment surviving mainly on potatoes for a whole year. With no money saved, and not knowing where to start, "it came to me" that what i can do is what i have already been doing all my life, "naturally" Well, i knew how to clean, so i made calls offering to clean homes. Our first customer was a relative. I grabbed a can of Comet Cleanser, a few rags, and mounted the $5.00 bike my husband purchased me from a resale store.
It took a whole day cleaning her 3 level home. When my husband saw my efforts, he then picked up a paint brush and announced, "well, i can paint"!
We called the landlord and informed him that he needed his building painted and cleaned, then offered our services. The next week he called and took us up on it. Unknown to us, he had 38 units, which we began to clean and paint. Later, when we were "divinely instructed" to move to a different location, we continued our business with him.
It was after we moved that our former landlord asked us to manage his properties. We became his part-time employees, seeing to the needs of tenants.... cleaning, painting, and most of all listening, hearing, observing. Later on, we were divinely instructed to get licensed, and we did. We believe one of the reasons we have been called into this business is to service a sector of people who may have resigned to become life-time renters due to low credit scores, hindering past histories, and lack of knowledge needed to assist in advancement. There is an immense degree of joy witnessing the gratitude shown on faces of clients who did not believe they could become homeowners! As we continue to be directed by "divine instructions" we anticipate greater contributions to service lives of many.
