HOW WE FIND YOU THE BEST TENANT

At Home Forward, our goal is to get your property rented quickly—but more importantly, we want to place the right resident. A little extra time upfront to find a great fit leads to a smoother experience for everyone and helps avoid the headaches that can come from rushing the process.

Resident screening is more than just a credit check. We take a deep dive into each applicant’s background to make sure they’re financially stable, reliable, and respectful of your home. Our thorough screening process includes:

• Full credit report
• Employment and income verification
• Debt-to-income analysis
• Eviction history review
• Criminal background check
• References from previous landlords

We don’t just rely on numbers—we look at the full picture to make a smart, informed recommendation. Our screening process is designed to be thorough, consistent, and fully compliant with all Fair Housing laws, protecting you from liability while helping us select the best possible resident. It’s a process that works, and it’s one of the reasons our residents tend to stay longer and take great care of the homes they rent.
