Yep, existing tenants usually have a different level of cleanliness than I expect during showings.

It won't help you now but, in the future, if you video the apartment in perfect condition you can upload it to youtube. You place the video on hidden status until you begin marketing the unit for impending turnover.

You would tell the future applicant that you do not want to bring strangers into your renter's home due to privacy and that they can view the unit on youtube. Applicants love to hear that you respect your current renters.

I certainly would not continue showing this unit until the animals and smell are gone. Your sense of smell is powerful and lasting. You remember good and bad things by sense of smell. You don't want your unit becoming one of those bad memories.

More organized and less time consuming that searching through a bunch of articles & forum posts.

But yes im sure BiggerPockets has a wealth of info as well. I will check that out as well.

Thanks

The time consuming part just may keep you out of trouble. You have so many different points of view here about how to handle rentals. It's not black and white. What works great in my market may not work in another market.

I agree, this forum has the knowledge you need. Might also check out the member blogs. Wealth of information.

Good luck.
