That all depends on who you rent to. just don't "real in" a tenant. Have them come to you because of non-financial reasons, like:
1 - Getting a job transfer to your property's area, and not sure if the one year contract will be extended once the project they were transferred there for will still exist.
2 - Wanting to try out a house before they buy
3 - Having approvable credit, but no down payment, so they LO to buy time to accumulate the DP.
4 - Can't get credit approval because job is new.
5 - ...and many more.
