A Tennessee rental application is filled out by a lease candidate to present their personal information and renting credentials to a landlord in an effort to be approved for a tenancy agreement. Landlords will evaluate the income history and employment status of the applicant to determine whether they are financially equipped to pay rent. The landlord may contact any references and perform both a credit and criminal check to further verify the individual’s background.
