Opinions of no-smoking and no-pets?
I'm really on the wall about this one, because lots of people smoke (eww... absolutely hate it...), and lots of people have pets and refuse to separate from them. And I think not allowing those 2 might narrow my potential tenants. I am pretty positive I will NOT allow smoking, because it stinks, its messy, it makes everything dirty, and its a bear to clean out. And Pets destroy stuff, create liabilities, trash the yard, and can destroy the house.
Some of the properties I'm looking at I've noticed have huge fenced in yards, so that would be a GREAT selling point for tenants... but I dont think I want to deal with cleaning, messes, pooh, and the liability of bites....
Input?
