<h2>5 Reasons Credit Reports Don't Work</h2>
By John Nuzzolese
<p><img src="https://www.thelpa.com/images/crpt.jpg" align=right ALT="credit report" border="0"><b>What??? Credit reports don't work? This must be a joke, right?</b> Tenant credit reports are one of the most important screening tools in the rental housing industry.
<p>In order to secure a good tenant for your rental, it is critical that we practice proper tenant screening. This includes verification of all the reference information on a detailed tenant rental application. A credit report is an important final step of verifying the tenant's financial history, or track record.<p>
Credit reports contain important factors in evaluating a person's creditworthiness. Creditworthiness, of course, is what you are looking for if you plan to hand over your rental property to someone.

Franklin

<p>
There are many Real Estate Investors that are unsure whether they should establish a Corporate Entity or not. The primary purpose of having your Real Estate Investments, in a Corporate Entity, is to protect you personally. You want Asset Protection. Ideally, for Buy and Hold Investments, you would want to create a LLC, for each property. This may seem a daunting task; and you may be thinking how to manage all the bookkeeping. Depending on your area and the value of each property, you may want to consider grouping properties into a single LLC that does not exceed a total monetary threshold.
<p>
To better illustrate this concept, I will share my Company's Business Model. Each acquisition is placed in its own Clone LLC, with the only member of the Clone LLC being the Umbrella LLC. This funnels all net gains and losses, from each Clone LLC, to ACT Investment Properties, LLC that operates as the Umbrella LLC. This Business Model only requires two Bank Accounts: a Corporate Checking Account and a Corporate Savings Account...

Qualified tenants are more than happy to fill out the form and show you how wonderful they are. Find out as much pertinent information on your rental applicants as you can before entering into any lease or rental agreement.
