Save Yourself Valuable Time, Money And Sanity From Renting To Rogue Tenants!
THE TENANT GRIFFIN STORY
Have you ever heard horror stories of bad tenants? Tenants who refuse to pay rent, or damage properties? Do you know that it costs at least $10,000 in legal fees and takes more than 6 months to evict a tenant?
If you have heard stories about bad tenants, or, if you have encountered them yourself, you would know by now how much time, effort, and money you have wasted in managing and even evicting the tenant.
Over the years of managing our own and other investors’ properties, we have come across many different types of tenants – the good, the bad, and the ugly. One day, we decided that we have enough of these rogue tenants, and started keeping a list of these tenants.
Shortly after, we realized that other landlords like ourselves also face challenges when renting their properties to bad tenants, and that a centralized database of bad tenants is needed. This marks the birth of Tenant Griffin. Tenant Griffin aims to provide a fast, simple, and affordable way to screen prospective tenants.
With access to the track record of each and every Griffins, landlords like yourself are now able to make informed decisions on whether to impose additional conditions of lease to the Griffins or to refuse to rent properties to them altogether. You now possess information of the Griffin that comes knocking on your door, wanting to rent property from you.
WHY USE TENANT GRIFFIN?
Complete Control
Tenant Griffin keeps records of each and every report against a Griffin. When a Griffin shows up in the result, you will know how frequently the Griffin has been reported, the date of each report, the type of property involved, and the reasons why the Griffin was reported. With this information, landlords like yourself will be empowered to make informed decisions on handling each Griffin.
Quality Data
We receive reports from landlords, property managers and real estate professionals like yourself. Anonymous reporting is prohibited to avoid sabotaging of innocent tenants. Similarly, every report goes through our unique Griffin Screening System (GSS) not only to protect innocent tenants, but also to ensure the accuracy of data for landlords like yourself!
Comprehensive Coverage
Tenant Griffin not only allows landlords, property managers and real estate agents to screen tenants on residential properties, but also provides the same level of protection against every Griffin across industrial and commercial properties, and even vacant lands! In short, Tenant Griffin can keep you safe regardless of the type of property you invest in and wherever your investment may be!
WHAT IS A GRIFFIN?
A Griffin is a tenant who damages your property or one you have to spend a considerable amount of time and effort to chase after for rental payment for every month, taking away precious time that you could be spending with your loved ones, or, going on that vacation trip you’ve always wanted, and even costing you huge amount of money to repair your property and to evict. Simply put, a Griffin is someone you don’t ever want to rent your property to.
- Do you have a tenant who delays paying rent every month?
- Do you have a tenant who owes you many months of rent?
- Do you have a tenant who damages your property and refuses to pay for it?
- Do you have a tenant whom you have to evict after all efforts to remedy failed?
HOW ARE GRIFFINS CURATED?
Tenant Griffin uses a unique Griffin Screening System (GSS) to verify a report and make sure no tenant is wrongfully added to the system.
Step 1: Report
Landlords, property managers and real estate professionals report tenants and submit supporting documents such as the tenancy agreement, tenant’s work pass & identification document, as well as photos of damaged property and screenshots of conversations with the tenant.
Step 2: Review
Our Tenant Griffin assessment team will review the supporting documents submitted by the landlord, property manager, or, real estate professional. At this stage, we may request additional information for clarification or to further verify claims of the incident.
Step 3: Rate
Based on all information gathered from the report submitted, our Tenant Griffin assessment team will then decide if there is enough evidence against the reported tenant. Once confirmed, the reported tenant will be added to our Database of Griffins.
