Las Vegas Renter Information

With over 200 residential rental properties under management, we typically have a dozen or so new homes for rent every month for you to choose from right away.

Even though our Las Vegas rental properties tend to rent fairly quickly, it wouldn’t be a bad idea for you to at least contact our leasing department to see if we have a move-in ready home that meets your immediate needs.

In addition, we can customize a unique MLS search for all available Las Vegas Rental Properties and send you a daily email of all new rental listings that fit your specific criteria for size, area, school district and price.

This service is also free, and our leasing agents can assist you with any Las Vegas rental home that is featured in the local MLS.

Many renters, through no fault of their own, have also suffered during our current foreclosure crisis when landlords defaulted on their loans and did not inform their tenants.

Although we cannot guarantee any landlord will not lose their property to foreclosure in the future, we’ll do our best to prequalify landlords and eliminate those that are obvious risks to our rental clients.

How Does The Rental Process Work?

Our services are Free for all potential renters in most cases where the landlord or representing property management company offers to cover agent fees by paying a referral fee.

Step 1: Locate A Property:

Shelter Realty has a dedicated team of leasing agents that will help you find an available home for rent and negotiate the terms of the lease.

We can help you create a custom rental search through our interactive online MLS system, or simply email you a list of rental properties that fit your criteria.

Don’t forget to check out our featured rental properties in the sidebar map to the right as well.

Step 2: Complete Rental Application:

It isn’t a bad idea to gather your personal info ahead of time and have a draft application completed before you go looking for a property. Sometimes personal details, dates, employment history, addresses… can take a while to locate.

Either way, it’s important that all of your information is accurate and complete prior to submitting a rental application, especially since some property management

Step 3: Tenant Interview / Screening Process:

Each landlord or property management company has their own checklist for evaluating potential tenants.

Shelter Realty uses a simple grading system based on certain criteria such as: income, employment, credit history, rental history…

Step 4: Sign Lease / Rental Agreement:

Once approved, the final step is signing a lease and completing the initial walkthrough inspection process.

It’s extremely important that you look at all aspects of the property to make sure anything that is broken, scratched or missing is documented in the initial paperwork.
