Who has the best tenants ever? Great tenants DO EXIST

[Sarah Larbi]

One of my properties I have amazing tenants; granted I do many nice things for them in return but they are amazing nonetheless. As an example they gave us a hand made gift basket for Christmas with candles, body lotions, wine, etc that they made. (Wine was not made though) They also rented a carpet cleaner recently to clean the carpet on their dime and got the driveway sealed because they wanted it. A couple months ago the dishwasher stopped working instead of calling us to get a repair person out they youtubed how to fix it and did it themselves. Of course they pay on time, and are respectful of the house, keep us, etc I know there are a lot of posts about the bad things they do, just thought I'd start one with the great things they can do ....

@Sarah Larbi yes I've found that treating your tenants with respect goes a long way. I'm sad to have some of my best tenants go after 3 great years. They would often make improvements to the apartment on their own dime (with my permission of course).

Andrew I've always thought out side the box. I am not into raising rents, I purchased correctly so I make good income. I think our greed system is ridiculous. Raise Rents , Raise rents, it kills me when I hear this. I think most folks are buying the properties priced to high, so they must raise the rents to make financial  sense. I always thought as tenants as part of my team.

I try to look at things like this, every month a group of folks are coming to my house to drop off a check. They are building my retirement / legacy for me.It is a shame more folks don't think like you.

Now on the flip side I have the horrible tenants as well.

Tentants = Part of my team = My retirement = treat  all people  the way you want to be treated= its much easier tot deal with happy folks instead of miserable folks.

Happy easter '
