Tenant wants to add a pet?

The lease they sign then states they must show proof of all utilities scheduled in their name, required renter's insurance policy, and have met the requirements of any addendum (pet, fireplace, etc.), before possession will  be granted. 

Careful you don't end up with both - 5 kids and pets! 

We have an online application that we require first before sending the potential tenant on to the credit/background check, because we want to know a lot of things that Cozy doesn't care about, like pets, number of cars, kids, years at their job, previous address, etc. 

I have typically done plain white horizontal mini-blinds, and live with having to replace them every 2 years or so.If pets are allowed, especially dogs, then all blinds are basically need replacing at every turn over. 

They do like food (rotting food or pet food).

New roof to be installed in next month.Note: fireplace in master bedroom is non-working.QUALIFICATIONS:Gross income must be three times the rent and must be documentable (meaning income must be $3,750/month or $45,000/year)No evictions or foreclosures in the last 5 yearsNo felonies or other criminal activities in the last 10 yearsLandlord contact information for last two places you've lived or the last two years - whichever provides more contactsCo-signer is acceptable if you have no rental history (co-signer must meet all standards and may be subject to additional requirements upon review)No pets/animals over one pound - no exceptionsAll occupants must be on the original lease (no sub-leasing)All occupants must be met by property manager/owner (exceptions for military personal with recommendations and contact information for commanding officers)Maximum occupancy = 4 adults or 2 adults + 3 children12 month leaseNo Section 8Required for Move-in:1st months rent ($1,250+$48)Last months rent ($1,250+$48)Damage Deposit ($750)Utility Deposit ($150)TOTAL $3,496Rental application fee paid by tenant.

An example of that is smoking or pets.

@Eddie Smith we've found the two biggest tenant complaints:1) Maintenance expectations not met (taking too long)2) Expectations of communication not metThere are many more complaints, but majority are tenant-caused that they want a free pass on: waiver of Late Fees, Payment Plans to avoid eviction, being allowed to get a pet or otherwise violate their lease with no repercussions.

Hello,I am getting all my property management documents and software in order before I buy my first rental property so that when I buy it will be a smooth transition, Beside the lease and application, what other documents should I have in my files so that i am prepared (pet agreement, inspection checklist etc.) .
