Thank you all for the prompt and insightful advice!

@Gustavo Delgado what's a reasonable additional deposit?

I have an applicant with an eviction from 2019. He has since restored his credit (740) and has stable employment. What measures can I put in place to reduce my risk as a landlord? What questions should I ask during the screening?

Thanks in advance for your feedback.

Great feedback from this community as usual. Thanks for the insight. @John Morgan, are there particular areas of Arlington, Ft.Worth & Grand Prairie that I should focus on or stay away from?

Hi BP, looking for LTR investment properties in the DFW area. Would y'all recommend waiting until the spring of 2025 when more renters are house hunting or buy now & try to lease during the impending cooler months?

Thanks @Preston Dean!

Hello BP, Is there a metric, tool or indicator I can use to determine vacancy rates in a specific area before buying a rental property? What tips do you have to determine if a property will reasonable rent quickly in a given area at market rents?

Thanks

Thank you @Theresa Harris and @Nathan Gesner. I appreciate the prompt and actionable feedback!

Hi, my tenants just moved out and the property is a complete mess to the point where a full rehab may be needed. The security deposit is approximately 10% of total repairs so it won't cover most of the damages. What's the proper course of action?

Thanks in advance.

@Bruce Lynn any insight on the Arlington and HEB area?
