Investor from Pittsburgh PA
I am a newer investor who started only about 2 years ago. I have accumulated a multi unit (duplex), which I am currently living in one side and renting the other, and a single family that I rent out. I am in the process of looking for a 3rd rental now. I've so far been lucky with my tenants. But I am getting nervous about the screening process. I happened to know my first tenants, and the second property came with tenants. I have not yet had to market a rental or screen. Any tips for when this happens?

I will look into that. I have landlord insurance on the homes, but never knew I could possibly add that. I will call them. I've read up on screening companies. I think I probably will take that route. What is your credit score cut off? And what other NO's have any of you decided to keep as a rule of thumb?
