How do property management companies screen tenants?

Tenant screening generally includes reviewing the rental application and evaluating factors permitted by applicable law and the property manager's written qualification criteria. Depending on the screening process, this may include credit, income or employment verification, rental history, eviction history, and background screening. Consistent screening standards are important for both risk management and fair housing compliance.
