How many tenants do you screen?
This is my first time picking a tenant for my first rental property. I'm very excited to be at this stage. I have decided to manage the property myself.
So far, I have received interest from several people, sent a pre-screener, and I'm booking walk throughs of the house. The next step would be to accept applications.
How many tenants, on average, do you experienced landlords screen via applications before picking a tenant?

I'm a realtor with rental listings and a 4-unit myself. Like @Taylor Wilson mentioned, I create clear criteria and publicize it on whatever platforms you use to publish the listing. And I screen every applicant until I find the right tenant. Additionally, I pre-screen all applicants. I.E. i'm not showing a property until I know that person is qualified to rent the unit.
Screen until the unit is filled.
