So, proper screening is EXTREMELY important!

-Only 1 screen in the two bedroom unit was intact, the rest were either missing or had big holes.

we are getting setup withKCB screening and will let you know how they are

So it’s important to make sure your screening process is compliant with fair housing laws and is based on objective criteria like income (including voucher amount), rental history, credit, and references.There are pros and cons to working with voucher tenants:Pros:A portion of the rent is guaranteed by the housing authority, which can help with consistent cash flow.Many tenants stay long-term, which can reduce turnover.Considerations:The unit will need to pass an inspection, and you may need to wait for approval before move-in.Rent increases, lease changes, and eviction processes often involve additional steps and coordination with the housing agency.As others have mentioned, having a consistent screening process is key.

Bedroom doors get kicked in, windows broken, holes appear in walls, blinds & screens ruined, cigarette burns on countertops & carpets, etc.

I've seen you post this in other forums and it has good content wrt screening potential pms. 

Tenant screening and expense tracking has been solid.

Could be anything —• A screening question you added• A maintenance workflow that saved you headaches• A tool/software feature you discovered• Something you implemented with tenants that reduced calls• Or even just something simple that improved your sanity 😅I’ll start: For me, adding a required “hold fee” for out-of-state applicants dramatically cut down on last-minute drop-offs.

From postings on Zillow to automated responses to questionnaires and screening, etc, it has Made my leasing process a lot smoother!
