Is Employment Verification Really That Important?

Employment verification is an extremely important step in the tenant screening process.  Generally, a renter needs a good job so he or she can pay the rent.  Let me give you a list of things to inquire about.

 

One of the most important things is to pay attention to is: who and how the business phone is answered.  Why, because some people will give you a friend to call and pretend they are the employer.  The phone should be answered with a business name.

 

Ask for the applicant’s supervisor or boss.  This information should have been provided by the applicant on the application. 

 

Ask the following questions:

  • How long has the applicant been employed there?
  • Is he or she currently employed there?
  • Is the job full time, part time or temporary?
  • How many hours a week does he or she work?
  • Verify the monthly income.  (Employers do not always give out this information.)
  • Does their job future look good?

Make sure to do good employment verification.  If you do not have the time to do it yourself, Renting Authority can help you.
