@Michael Weismann is the ESA the only reason you're not accepting her?

@Russell Brazil That's an excellent point that I never thought about before.

@Roberto Lopez PayNearMe allows tenants to make cash payments at dollar general, 7/11, and a few other stores that gets deposited to your account

@Ali Ahmed Additional 200/ month (2400/year) on a 10k investment would be a 24% cash on cash return. I would definitely do that. Also replacing carpet with more tenant proof tile will lower cap exs. Just be sure your rents will increase that much but I think it's dedicated l worth it. Get started on it soon though. You're 12 days into the month and still getting bids. From here to the rest of the year you have school starting, holidays, and winter weather, all of which tenants don't tent to move as much.

SMH. You are turning as many good tenants away as bad tenants with a paragraph like that. If I was looking at temporary housing for work I would avoid the LL that airs out all his dirty laundry in a fb post.

@Russell Brazil, you seem to post on many of the esa/service animal posts. Pet peeve of yours? Pun intended

@Clifford Merritt check out Book On Managing Rental Properties. Your question is so general that there is just too much information to learn for a blog post

Good luck, McKenzie. Sounds like you're off to a good start

This reminds me of the movie Step Brother's but what @Patricia Steiner said

I agree with @James Wise. Group showings will allow you to find a tenant more efficiently by taking less of your time and more of a competitive feeling for the applicants. Many people who "love the home" will not complete an application or screening if they know that they don't meet your minimum criteria and hope you will rent to them because "the house is perfect for their family" without screening them.
