Overview of Tenant Reports

Of the many pitfalls and risks facing the individual real estate investor, few equal the devastating effects of fraud committed by tenants. Unlike their larger commercial counterparts in which the risk of rental fraud is spread across significant property holdings, the small landlord often faces financial ruin due to non-payment of rent, vandalism and criminal activity committed by tenants.

The owner of TenantReports.com, a former investigator of fraud and misconduct committed by New York State licensed real estate professionals, and a seasoned private detective, has handled numerous cases in which small landlords were unable to meet their obligations as a result of rental fraud and subsequently lost their investment properties. In most instances, this could have been prevented.

Armed with this knowledge, a property owner is in a better position to identify problem tenants before entering into a lease agreement with them, thereby avoiding potential disaster.
