Residential Rentals

As a Property Owner, you may prefer to manage your rental property yourself, but need some assistance in finding the right tenant.

Your Long & Foster agent can assist you by screening potential applicants. During our screening process, we verify employment, rental history, credit history and court history. You are then equipped to make an informed business decision and place the right tenant to your property.
