Are you eviction friendly?

Had a prospective tenant reach out yesterday and ask us if we are 'eviction friendly'? (We aren't)

Never had that question before; usually, it's, are you pet-friendly or are you kid-friendly?

It's the little things in this business where you find joy

    To me that would be a red flag. I'd ask what they meant by that.

    That would be a big red flag for me. Did you ask them if they are pay rent on-time and abide by lease friendly?

    No need to ask them anything, their question says it all.
