Tenant Screening

Comprehensive Tenant Screening for Central Florida Landlords

How We Screen Your Rental Applicants

Orlando Tenant Screening

At Belmont Management Group, we know that placing the right resident is one of the most important decisions you’ll make as a rental property owner. The truth is, all investments carry risk—but in real estate, who you rent to can make or break your experience.

That’s why our tenant screening process goes far beyond the standard background check. Over the years, we've fine-tuned our criteria to reduce risk, protect our clients, and ensure a more stable, profitable rental experience—all while remaining fully compliant with federal and Florida Fair Housing laws.

Smart Screening That Reduces Risk

Our mission is simple: rent to qualified tenants who treat your home with respect and pay on time. We don’t believe in shortcuts or checking boxes. Every application undergoes a thorough review process that includes:

  • Full credit report review (not just a score)
  • Employment verification and income consistency
  • Debt-to-income ratio analysis
  • Eviction history search across national databases
  • Criminal background check
  • Direct landlord reference checks

But we don’t stop there. Our team takes the time to cross-reference every piece of information. We perform reverse phone number lookups, verify property ownership records, and dig into inconsistencies that automated systems may overlook. It’s this extra layer of diligence that gives our clients confidence—and sets us apart from other property managers in Central Florida.

Fast Isn’t Always Best—Right Is Always Better

We strive to lease your property quickly, but we’ll never sacrifice quality for speed. Finding the best resident up front leads to fewer late payments, less turnover, and a smoother relationship between landlord and tenant. Rushing to place the wrong person? That often leads to stress, damage, and costly mistakes.

Our process is designed to protect your bottom line while creating a positive experience for everyone involved.

A Balanced, Legal, and Fair Process

In today’s fast-changing legal landscape, it’s more important than ever to ensure that your screening process is consistent, objective, and fully compliant with all applicable laws. Our team stays current on all local, state, and federal regulations so that your investment—and your reputation—are protected.

We believe you can be both thorough and fair. And our long track record proves it.

Protect your investment with Central Florida’s most diligent tenant screening team. Let Belmont Management Group help you find residents who care for your property like it’s their own.
