Owner’s Authorization to Lease

Unless you discuss every application with the owner, you’ll approve or deny most without the owner’s input. If you approve them, you will find times when an applicant falls outside your scope of authority for various reasons such as their credit score is low, their residency or employment may be weak, have money but not income, have several pets, are requesting a 9-month lease or any other nonconforming reason. This document lets you notify the owner of the issue and get their approval (or denial) to rent the property to a particular applicant without giving them too much information and violating the FCRA. We’ve accumulated several formats from other managers for this so we’ll include more than one for you to tweak to fit your model.
