Hey all. I have a brand newly renovated three flat in a quiet north side Chicago neighborhood. Hardwood floors, new everything, etc. Just listed it and am getting a high number of "do you accept dogs" viewing inquiries. Thoughts on allowing dogs? Would be interested in your experiences. Thanks!

@Benjamin E. I do accept dogs in most of my rentals, simply because 67% of my audience has pets. 

We now take photos, pet fee and pet deposit, pet addendum with all the rules etc...and are recently talking about monthly pet rent. 

Important to do a pre-move in video and or pictures to notate condition of the property inside and out. More often than not, we don't have any issues
