Tenant fraud is no longer rare—it’s guaranteed if you manage rental properties long enough. In this episode, Charles Carillo breaks down the exact tricks fraudulent tenants use, why rental application fraud has exploded since COVID, and the proven steps landlords can take to stop it before handing over the keys.
You’ll learn how to identify fake documents, false employer claims, fabricated income, stolen identities, and the red flags that most landlords never catch. This episode also uncovers the “second wave” of fraud that starts after move-in, including illegal subletting, hidden roommates, and professional tenants who exploit eviction laws.
If you want to protect your properties, avoid costly evictions, and dramatically improve your tenant screening process, this is the guide you’ve been waiting for.
