Finding the Right FIT: Why PMI Navigate’s Tenant Screening Process Sets Us Apart
At PMI Navigate, we don’t just screen—we find the RESIDENT FIT. That means tenants who are financially responsible, integrity-driven, and treat your property like it’s their own. Our 10-point screening process is built to do more than fill vacancies—we help you find the right residents.

What is RESIDENT FIT? It’s our way of ensuring your tenants are the best match for your property. Every letter stands for a key part of our thorough screening process:
R – Rental History (Landlord Verification)
We verify with previous landlords to understand the applicant’s rental behavior and responsibility.
E – Employment Verification
Stable employment means reliable income and financial stability.
S – Stable Income (Income Verification)
We confirm the applicant has sufficient income to meet rent obligations without financial strain.
I – Identity & Criminal Background Check
Protecting your property and community means knowing who’s living there.
D – Debt Review (Credit Check)
A full credit review highlights financial responsibility and current liabilities.
E – Eviction History
We check for prior evictions—an essential step to minimize risk.
N – No Legal Judgments (Public Records Search)
We search public records for judgments, liens, or ongoing legal issues.
T – Tenant Credit Behavior (Credit History)
We go beyond the score to evaluate payment patterns and credit usage.
F – Financial Stability (Bankruptcy Check)
We assess whether past bankruptcies might impact future rent payments.
I – Information on Pets (Pet Verification)
Pet info is verified to ensure compatibility with property rules and prevent damage.
T – Trustworthy Residents Only
All of the above help us place residents who respect your property, follow lease terms, and contribute to a positive rental experience.
Why It Matters Our RESIDENT FIT screening process is designed to protect your investment, reduce turnover, and bring you peace of mind. At PMI Navigate, we take the extra steps so you don’t have to—and that means fewer headaches, more consistent income, and happier tenants.
