TIPS FOR FINDING GREAT TENANTS

Locating and keeping good tenants is crucial when you buy an investment property, so a little caution during the screening process can save you a lot of headaches later on.

Intuition plays a role in a landlord's decision‑making process but it is very important to follow up on your intuition by checking on the facts. Ask your local REALTOR® to have prospective tenants fill out an application that includes both employment and personal references as well as the name, address and phone numbers of previous landlords. The application should also include written permission for you to run a credit check, if the prospects have not already provided a current one.

In most areas it is difficult and expensive to evict someone who turns out to be less than a model tenant, so it is wise to conduct a thorough check of references and credit history. You should always work with a licensed REALTOR® who possesses a solid reputation for screening tenants as well as a familiarity of contracts for your protection.

Once you have found your new tenant, review all documentation and property requirements together before they take occupancy to ensure that you have no miscommunications down the road.

HOW DO REALTOR®S FIND BUYERS?

When a homeowner tries to sell "By Owner", they use a few basic techniques to get the word out. Visit www.SamanthaNichols.com for more detailsThey place a "For Sale by Owner" sign from the local hardware store in the front yard, and run classified ads in the local newspaper, possibly list the property on Craig's List or other "For Sale By Owner" site.

When a seller lists their home with a professional real estate agent, however, a very sophisticated process begins in order to generate a successful sale.

REALTORS® have a backlog of prospective buyers who are looking for homes in their local market. Through the Multiple Listing Service (MLS), the agent cooperates with other brokers in the area, who will make appointments to show your home to their prospective buyers.

Professional REALTORS® also combine direct mail, telephone calls, a variety of advertising media and specialized promotional techniques to reach the sales market. We use the Internet for broad exposure of our properties. In this way we create activity on our listings that help them to sell quickly for top dollar.
