Reviving an old thread here, I just accepted an ALE contract. Mine was for 2 months (optional month to month w/ 30day notice to vacate) at a premium of $800 above market value. They also offered a $500 non-refundable pet deposit. The tenant had fire damage and was in a 6month lease but needed to extend and his current landlord took a 12month lease instead, so i decided to house him for 2 months till his house was repaired (fire damage). So far, ALE has been a treat to work with. They overnighted the funds and have been super responsive. They hired professional movers who move rental furniture for the tenant as his is ruined. The movers were so unprofessional and scratched 2 different walls and 2 different ceilings. I'm waiting to hear back on this, but this was just noticed. The lease is in the tenant's name, but the money is real and comes from ALE. ALE encouraged me to do my own background check and didn't apply any pressure to accept the contract. I did my own background check and even met the tenant when showing the apt. Nothing to complain about yet, but it's only week 2. I'll update everyone if my feelings for ALE change.
