@Mike Young Welcome to BP.  I am in Cedar Rapids, turning over those old homes you are talking about.  We live in one that was flipped before we took it.  Lots of character you don't find anymore.  Good luck.

@David Chwaszczewski Good question.  @Account Closed about the tenant lying, especially starting the relationship which would be a horrible precedent, I used personal judgement to override this and it has worked out so far.  

On the property I am showing now, I would actually more readily accept pets since the condition isn't so great, especially flooring and trim compared to the other properties I have.  I hear what others are saying about the bonuses, so I guess my point is, there are always exceptions.  I haven't explored it though, except by accident.

I'm sure no one has ever had this happen.  I got through showing the property and hand the prospective tenants their rental app, and she looks at me and says, "oh, there's no pets?  I have a cat."  

Ugh.
