Not easily! That’s the truth. Today, I took a nice Lady to see 2 rental homes. By the time I got back, to make application, they were gone. How can someone rent in an environment like this? We decided to switch strategies. Normally, I don’t handle rentals for others. This case is a personal friend. So my strategy is gonna be making the application site un-seen.
This strategy is terrible for the Tenant because they have to spend at least $50.00 per application + the mountain of paperwork required. In AZ, the Dept. of Real Estate has a standard application (that almost NO property management companies take). The property management companies want everything on their forms. Which means not only do Tenants have to give $50.00 to each of them, but they also get to re-write the application over and over and over again. What a colossal hassle.
When you select your Realtor to find you a rental. Make certain they are willing to allow a pre-showing application otherwise you will never get a house. Happy Hunting.
