Pets or no pets?
I understand if you allow pets, you're opening doors for whole nother sector of renters' market
Why else would you do it? Higher rent? :roll:

I think that too many people have pets for you to completely disallow them.
We have a list of dog breeds which we do not allow for insurance purposes. We also have a weight limit for dogs. We charge a refundable pet deposit plus $20/mo pet rent which is nonrefundable.
