How We Screen Your Rental Applicants

Placing the Right Tenant Matters More Than Placing One Quickly

Fort Lauderdale Tenant Screening

At Tend Property Management, we understand the urgency of filling your rental—but we also know that rushing the process can cost you more in the long run. Our goal is to rent your property swiftly and strategically, with a strong focus on securing the right tenant, not just the fastest one.

Taking the time upfront to thoroughly screen applicants leads to better experiences for both property owners and tenants. It means fewer headaches, longer lease terms, and a more consistent return on your investment.

There’s More to Screening Than a Credit Check

Many landlords think tenant screening stops at a basic credit pull and income check—but we go far deeper. Our high-quality, comprehensive screening process is designed to reduce risk, protect your property, and set the stage for a smooth tenancy.

Here’s what we evaluate:

  • Full Credit Report Review
  • Verified Employment & Income
  • Debt-to-Income Ratio Analysis
  • Nationwide Eviction History Search
  • Criminal Background Check
  • Direct Contact with Previous Landlords

We Look Beyond the Score

A high credit score doesn’t always mean a great tenant—and a lower score doesn’t automatically mean a bad one. That’s why we take a well-rounded, case-by-case approach, reviewing the full application in context.

We assess financial stability, rental behavior, and overall risk. This thoughtful, layered process allows us to consistently place reliable, respectful tenants who stay longer and care for your property like it's their own.

Results That Speak for Themselves

Our tenant placement success rate is no accident—it’s the result of a proven, professional process that prioritizes quality over speed, every time.

Want your next tenant to be someone you can trust? Let Tend handle the process from start to finish.

Why South Florida is a Prime Market for Real Estate Investment

South Florida isn’t just beautiful—it’s booming. With year-round sunshine, a thriving tourism industry, and continued population growth, this region offers one of the most dynamic rental markets in the country. Cities like Miami, Fort Lauderdale, and Palm Beach attract a steady stream of tenants, from young professionals and families to seasonal visitors and international renters.

What makes it even more attractive? High rental demand, rising property values, and no state income tax—all contributing to a strong return on investment. Whether you’re a local or out-of-state owner, South Florida’s real estate market offers both short-term cash flow and long-term appreciation.

And with Tend’s full-service management—including most maintenance in your plan—owning in South Florida becomes not only profitable, but truly hands-off.
