Literally my face when people call and ask so you a private landlord. Let me help yall out....
Stop contacting "PRIVATE LANDLORDS" as if we are not in business just like other landlords.
✔Yes, you have to complete an application and pay a NONREFUNDABLE fee
✔Yes, we require a deposit 💰
✔Yes, we will verify your income, your references and your prior rental history
✔Yes, we check credit
✔Yes we want our full rent at the first of the month, not monthly payments.
Some of y'all have no understanding, Private landlords are small business owners. Most people who are private landlords use that income for their retirement or to supplement their monthly income and have made sacrifices to be a landlord... If you find a landlord that does non of the above you can probably expect:
❌ The property not to be maintained
❌ Repairs won't be done timely, if at all
❌ The property needs WORK
❌ Your calls won't be returned if you have an issue
❌ Poor reference when you want to move bc they won't fix nothing
Choose your process. Choose your Landlord.
