We need to be able to see evictions through our screening process.

So, the first question they usually ask a PMC is about fees - instead of asking about services and HOW those services are executed.EXAMPLE: PMC states they will handle tenant screening – what does that specifically mean?

I also take care of my homes better than a PM would, screen tenants better, and have better relationships with those tenants. 

Sorry Tim I should have answered your question and posted the screen shots by quoting!

I suspect low vacancy, decent screening, no bs with tenants, and luck have all played a role. 

Given that I now have added risk of having the tenant forever, my screening requirements got tighter (less people will qualify) and my rent at every unit goes up to compensate for the added risk.

You need to know buyer has their own money they just want to use someone else's money to buy.Big difference between someone with 500k in their bank account wanting to use an HML and a buyer with 5k to their name and putting up 1k non-refundable on a wing and a prayer.If you had multiple investors you likely should have screened your investors much harder to see who looked the strongest and could perform.

I met enough people and saw enough stats to believe that REI handles their tenant screening and property management with the same ferocious level of commitment and that's what I came for.

PadSplit is directly involved in tenant screening and placement but does not manage the property.

If you owned a property with a broken stairwell where someone trips and falls, got incapacitated for life, why would their damages be restricted to $170K.
