Home-owners tend to shortlist and select from it, so make sure the first impression counts. Home-owners generally look for: o A renter who is able and responsible enough to pay rent at a stipulated time every month. o A renter or tenant who will treat the home-owner and the home with proper care and respect. o A tenant who is quiet and does not disturb other tenants or neighbors. 6. Be punctual and try not to cancel any appointments with the home-owners. No-show is not taken kindly by home-owners. 7.
