How Flatmint Finds Reliable Tenants (So You Don’t Have To)

A vacant rental costs you money. A bad tenant costs you even more.

At Flatmint, we take tenant placement seriously. That’s why our process is built to protect your investment and ensure your property is filled with qualified, responsible renters—without you having to lift a finger.

Here’s how we consistently place great tenants for Seattle rental properties:

1. 📋 Clear, Compliant Rental Listings

It starts with a listing that sets expectations. We create professional, legally compliant ads that highlight key features, requirements, and rental terms to attract serious inquiries only.

2. 🔍 Rigorous Tenant Screening

We use industry-leading screening tools to run full credit, background, income, ID Verification with Stripe, and rental history checks. Every applicant is evaluated against a consistent, criteria-based system—ensuring fairness and accuracy.

3. 🧾 Verified Income & References

We confirm employment, income, and contact prior landlords to verify rental history. This helps us confidently assess whether the applicant is financially stable and respectful of rental agreements.

4. ⚖️ Full Legal Compliance (So You’re Always Covered)

Seattle’s tenant laws are some of the most complex in the country. From “First-in-Time” requirements to rental criteria disclosures—we follow every rule to the letter to protect both you and your property.

5. ✅ A Proven System That Works

We’ve helped owners avoid costly evictions, long vacancies, and unreliable renters by sticking to a structured, proven placement process. No gut decisions—just data, diligence, and local expertise.

The result? Reliable tenants. Less turnover. More peace of mind.

And you never have to chase paperwork, screen applicants, or second-guess your decision. Flatmint does it all—efficiently, ethically, and legally.
