What do high quality tenants really want?

[Michelle C.]

We're live in our owner occupied 2 unit building, and are realizing the importance of attracting high quality tenants so we can co-exist peacefully and happily at our home.  We have been investing money heavily into this property to make it appealing, not just to us, but to our future tenants.  We are always looking for ways to attract better people. We've made a lot of impovements around the building, keeping things clean, landscaping, etc.  We are starting to talk about renovations inside the unit itself, and are trying to decide how far to go with the renovations.  What kinds of things do your high quality tenants look for in a home?

To give some context, we are in a very desireable neighborhood in Chicago, close to transit, restuarants etc.  The clientele we want to rent to is deinitely looking here, and we want them to want to rent from us.
