Tenant Issues/Screening Issues
Are there any newer landlords that are having trouble finding qualified tenants or having a bunch of applicants that are using fraudulent documents to qualify themselves?

Unfortunately, this issue occurs more frequently than one might expect. I strongly advise establishing clear screening criteria and a thorough screening process. Paying close attention to detail is crucial when evaluating applicants. Developing a comprehensive checklist can aid in identifying reliable tenants who are more likely to respect your property and make timely rent payments. By investing time in the screening process, you minimize risks and enhance the stability of your rental income, ensuring your investment remains profitable and stress-free. Remember, a little diligence upfront can save you significant time and resources in the future.
