I have a 3-step process I put them through before we actually agree to work together. 

That time I was looking at getting 201 S Washington (a 5 unit rental) and S Washington wasn't designated as STR and Gettysburg City said that I had to go thru the process of applying for zoning licence which is followed by a hearing with the neighbors as the jury who would hand me the verdict - yes/no.I like analyzing markets and observing them for a number of months/years.

Make sure it explicitly explains the process for termination if you are unhappy with their services, especially if they violate the terms of your agreement.3.

If it's zero, put in a zero, line through it, or something.If you don't use a manager, line through the entire clause and then you and the renter should initial the beginning and end of the line as proof it was agreed to.NHG  (D) As used in this Lease, Landlord’s “Authorized Management Agent” means ______________________________, address:___________________________,who is also authorized to act on behalf of Owner for the purpose of Service of Process and accepting Notices  NHGYes, you would check the line next to the form(s) of payment you accept.

The tenant has proof that the rent payment went through successfully and was processed.

Once you have a deal they will guide you through the process and even help you attain the funding with out coming out of pocket or using your personal credit.

I always start out with a process of responding back by phone or email and getting a quick conversation to let them know my process.

That violates the Takings Clause.MD can be distinguished (in fact MD was mentioned in the decision) in that there IS a process on the books for the foreclosed owner to petition the court for the surplus. 

Sounds like you have a pretty poor security system.Even with a good security system, having a tenant provide ID is the first step in a professional screening process. 

@Alex Washburn makes really good points - the process is definitely not easy.
