FAQ

Regardless of the reason, lying on a rental application is a major tenant screening red flag. If you discover your applicant has lied about a rental reference, you can (and should) deny them housing.

Fake landlord references can be given by tenants who know how to work the system. Tips for spotting a fake landlord reference include cross-checking the phone number, asking the reference for specific information about the tenant and the property, and checking out the tenant on social media sites.

Other important questions to consider asking include Did the tenant have roommates that contributed to the monthly rent?Were they evicted from the property?Did they have any pets?Did neighboring tenants ever make complaints against the tenant?How long was the tenancy?Why did the tenant choose to leave?More items...?

Questions to Ask During a Landlord Reference CheckWill they keep my rental property in good condition?Are they likely to pay on-time?Will they cause trouble with the neighbors?What can I expect when communicating with this applicant?

Landlords will collect rental references from interested renters via a rental application. One thing that is commonly found on rental applications is the request for personal, or character, references. As a landlord, you want to do a comprehensive background check on the tenant which includes calling tenant references.

Screening Questions for Tenant's Current or Past LandlordsWhat can you tell me about the tenant?Did the tenant pay on time or in the right amount?Did the tenant abide by the rules of the lease and any move-out rules?Did the tenant take care of your home and yard?Were there any complaints made against the tenant?More items...?

Can landlords see references which were provided to the letting agents? The agent can pass this information to the landlord, as long as, when the reference is asked for, they make clear to the tenant and the referee that this will happen.

If you paid rent on time in the past, show them your tenancy agreement and rent book or bank statements to prove this. You could also ask for a 'character reference' - a letter from an employer or someone who knows you well, to show that you're reliable.
