Screening Fort Worth Tenants in Compliance with Fair Housing Laws

Trend manages my three rentals in Saginaw. They helped me out of a difficult situation with one of my homeowner associations. They really went to bat for me and the end result was positive.
Additionally, I never have to worry about when I will receive my rental proceeds as they arrive on the same day each month
