RESIDENT SCREENING
We strive to get your investment rented quickly, but feel it is important to get the RIGHT resident versus the FAST resident! Spending time up front and finding the BEST resident for your rental creates a good experience all around, versus one that is stressful and frustrating.
Every single resident goes through the same approval process. All residents must meet a specific amount of income for each property. We verify this with copies of paystubs and verification from employers. We do an extensive background check. We use Doxpop to check for any court records on prospective residents. We also do extensive rental history verification. We don’t just take the resident’s word for it. We look up the resident's previous addresses and contact previous owners for feedback on what type of resident they were.
Oftentimes people think they just need to do a quick credit check and verify employment but there’s more to it than that. Our high quality resident screening process digs deeper. We gather extensive information on the following:
- Credit check
- Employment verification
- Debt to income ratios
- Eviction history check
- Criminal history check
- Previous landlord calls
Our screening process is not just based on a credit score only - we take a comprehensive look at the overall applicant. This process has proven to be extremely successful.
What Can CRM Property Management Do for Landlords Like Me?
Let us take the stress and headache out of managing your rental property.
In short, what Indianapolis property management services can do for you is all but alleviate the headaches you are either tired of encountering or that you’re about to encounter. We will make sure that your residents pay the rent on time, and if they don’t, we’ll take the appropriate steps to collect it as quickly as possible. We’ll handle the repairs that are necessary from time to time, so you won’t have to worry about suddenly becoming a DIY-er, which is particularly comforting to those who work with us who have no interest in this type of work.
We also take care of the regular inspections that are extremely helpful with regards to protecting your rental property. This process helps to identify small problems before they become big ones. Just the fact that the residents know that we’ll be stopping by every so often also motivates them to take good care of your property. That alone is worth the investment in our Indianapolis property management services.
All of these steps are designed to protect our rental property investors’ homes and structures, but they also protect our clients. By keeping a close eye on things, documenting everything as appropriate and working tirelessly to make sure that your property is safe, we reduce the potential liability you could ultimately face.

Too many people get into the rental property market as a means to grow their investment money thinking it’ll be a passive investment. It’s a good decision for the most part, as property values tend to increase over time no matter where you are and the rent payments almost make this investment self-funding. However, what appears to be a perfect plan on paper often turns out to be anything but in reality. residents create management situations, whether they are good or not so good, and rental properties take time to maintain, even if they’re relatively new.
Unfortunately, a lot of rental property investors do not go ahead and hire Indianapolis property management services because they think it’d be too costly. In most situations, this thinking is misguided. As you’ll see below, CRM Properties can help you understand the full value of your rental property such that it’s quite possible that you can charge more in rent than you would have otherwise. Given that potential, it’s also quite possible that this extra rent revenue will help to pay for your property management in Indianapolis. Once again, you’ve achieved a largely self-funding model.
