Hi folks, my new tenant mentioned his reason of moving as ‘landlord selling house’ in the application. When I checked with the landlord, it matched. Also, landlord didn’t give any negative feedback. All other background checks for the new tenants were great including credit score.
Now, I see their old address house is again listed for rent by the same owner. Now I am left wondering what could be the reason? Should I be worried and check again with the previous landlord? Anyone had similar experience? What could the possible reasoning be? Thanks a lot in advance!
Then you don’t need to worry too much. Did the tenant move in already? If they already moved in, you can’t do anything unless they made a mess or until the lease is up
Is that property listed at higher rent than yours?
Was that property listed for sale then de-listed?
If so, I wouldn’t be concerned.
Otherwise, it seems to me that current landlord tried to get rid of them for whatever reason.
However, another possibility is the landlord tried to put the property in the market then changed his mind.
It could be the case given the market (recent slowdown).
