Buy and Hold Properties: Get Yourself Great Tenants

A buy and hold property can bring great long term income, but only if you get great tenants. Here’s some ways to make sure you’re selecting tenants using proper criteria.

Many investors focus on Arizona fix and flip opportunities but there is also the prospect of holding a property beyond your initial Arizona hard money loan, obtaining a traditional loan for the mortgage, and take in long term rental income.

A buy and hold property is only as good as the tenants who reside there. Your selection criteria should help you determine who is going to be a stable occupant who will be able to meet the terms of your rental contract.

Make Your Selection Parameters

Here are a couple of things you’ll need to consider when outlining your selection criteria:

· Ideal income to rent ratio

· Minimum credit score

· Background check result considerations

· Personal and rental references

Pre-Screen to Save Time

You don’t have to carefully consider every potential tenant which can waste your time and theirs. Some will show red flags straight away. Getting them on the phone and asking a few up front questions can help you narrow down who is most suited for your property. You’ll still have to run credit and background checks, but if they tell you from day one that they have less than ideal credit, you can cross them off the list.

Perform Due Diligence on Applicants

We would like to think that everyone will provide completely truthful information on an application, but that isn’t the reality. You’ll want to confirm employment and references for accuracy.

In order to obtain a buy and hold rental property it may be best to use a Arizona hard money loan prior to qualifying for a traditional loan. Hard money lenders like us can fund in as little as a week so you can get started on any rehab for the property and get tenants in as quickly as possible.
