Placing the wrong tenant is one of the most costly mistakes a rental property owner can make. Sunshine City Property Management uses a rigorous, fair housing compliant screening process to protect your property and your rental income.
Comprehensive Credit Checks
We pull full credit reports to assess financial responsibility and payment history before approving any applicant.

A thorough criminal history review is conducted on every applicant as part of our standard process.
Employment & Income Verification
We verify employment status and confirm income meets the required threshold to support reliable rent payments.
Eviction History Search
We search eviction records to identify applicants with a history of non-payment or lease violations.
Previous Landlord References
Direct outreach to prior landlords helps us verify rental history and tenant behavior firsthand.
Fair Housing Compliant Process
Every screening decision follows a consistent, documented process in full compliance with federal and Florida fair housing laws.
