An Idaho rental application is a form that helps landlords of residential rental property gather information on lease applicants before selecting the most suitable tenant. These forms are handed out to prospective tenants interested in a particular rental unit, then they’re completed, signed, and sent back to the landlord for review. The landlord will look over each application and decide which individual is eligible for tenancy based on their rental history, personal income, and references. With the consent provided through this form, background checks can be performed on applicants to provide the landlord insight into any criminal history or bad credit.
