Looking for a Woodbridge home to rent?
What about a home in one of the other Irvine areas?

Right now, 33 Woodbridge homes are listed for rent on the MLS,
and 249 homes for lease are available elsewhere in Irvine.

(My home finding services are free to you - I'm paid by the landlords)

Fill out your "wish list" on this form, and if I can help you, I'll set up a special "properties" web page for you, free of charge.

All available homes that meet your criteria will be posted onto your web page. I mean ALL homes on the MLS that match your "wish list", by ALL agents in Southern California. NO HOMES WILL BE LEFT OUT - IF IT IS LISTED FOR RENT, YOU WILL SEE IT.

Once I've set up your web page, you'll receive emails as new listings come on the market, and these listings will be added to your web page.

You'll be among the first to see them!

Unlike many other websites, yours will be updated every 12 hours, so you will see only the available listings, not properties that were rented weeks or even months ago.

What happens when you see a home on your web page that you'd like to view?
 
Just let me know which homes you'd like to see, and I'll make the necessary appointments. Then we'll either meet at the first house, or at my office.

It's a good idea to have your Application to Rent forms all filled out before we go and view any homes.
 

OK, you like a home. Now what?
 


Your completed Application to Rent form, (click to see the form), is submitted to the landlord or his/her agent, together with your credit report. You can supply your own credit report in a lot of cases, but some landlords insist on a credit report from all three major bureaus which must be run by a lender. If you like, I can have these run for you free of charge.

Sometimes copies of your recent bank statements and/or pay stubs are required, and sometimes even copies of your tax returns.

All the homes are individually owned, so each owner has his/her own list of things that must be submitted before deciding whether to accept you as a tenant or not.

Some landlords may want to see other documentation besides the above, and some may want your previous rental history to be checked out.

It's super-important to provide a legible, complete, neat application. Don’t leave anything blank. A messy, incomplete application may give the wrong impression!


Oops, your credit isn't wonderful. Now what?
 
Often a letter explaining your situation helps a landlord see past the credit scores. Just because your FICO scores are low, does not mean that you're incapable of paying your rent on time every month.

You might have lost your home to a short sale or foreclosure, but you probably still have the ability to pay for a roof over your head! Possibly you were unemployed for a while but now have a job. A bankruptcy due to medical bills or a business that went south may be the reason for low credit scores.

Explaining these things in a letter helps to eliminate any doubt in the landlord's mind and allows the landlord to make a decision based on current facts, and not just credit scores.

If you are moving from another lease home, it's always a good idea to get a letter from your current landlord, saying what great tenants you are, with no late payments and saying how you have always taken great care of the home.

Another good idea is to offer to pay the rent on your new place via a direct deposit into the new landlord's bank account, so they won't have to worry about your payments being mailed on time.

There are other ways to secure a lease if your credit has seen better days, and we can discuss this if you like.

Landlords just want to sleep at night, and besides sleeping tablets, there are two main things that the landlord is looking in a tenant:
 (1) Someone who will will pay the rent on time, and
 (2) Someone who will take good care of the property.
