Tenant Screening/Lease questions

Joseph Shin
  • Port Hope, Ontario
Posted

My current tenant is moving out August the 30th and I am seeking a new tenant beginning the month of September and I have a few questions.

1. What are some red flags I should lookout for in a potential tenant?

2. I posted an ad on kijiji with no pictures of the 1bed 1 bath with full kitchen and deck in the Peterborough area and there has been over 40 responses and many requesting a viewing. I am asking $800 p/m is this too low?

3. Any tips/things to look out for when hosting a viewing of the unit?

4. Are tenants on disability desirable?

5. Any additional terms I should add to my lease? (eg no pets)

I am very new to this and I appreciate any advice I can get.
Cheers!
