Yeah the discrimination liability is what I was concerned about. Thank you for the insight!

Hi everyone. My wife and I are new to the MTR game. We listed on Apartments.com for their management tools (saw it recommended in a thread on here). We do plan to also list with ALE and some other sites, but curious if anyone that has used Apartments.com or a similar site has run into issues with screening potential tenants, since it's a much broader user group than something like FurnishedFinder or TravelNurseHousing.com. I'm finding that some of our inquiries are from locals who are for one reason or another seeking month to month leases. I'm a little concerned that someone local may be more prone to having lots of guests in and out.

Do you advertise (in the listing or in screening conversations) that you're specifically looking for traveling professionals? Do you set specific screening criteria to help narrow the scope? At the end of the day if someone passes background check and has proof of income it doesn't really matter, but just curious thoughts here. 


Thanks for any advice!
