What is the best all-in-one property management software that includes tenant screening, applications, rent collection, maintenance requests, etc.? 

I have a nice sized house (3k sf) in a nice community close to everything, on a lake, fenced in yard with nice pool & screen house, all 5-star reviews, but both last summer and this summer have been about 50% occupancy.

I focus a huge amount of time on tenant screening and providing exceptional property management/customer service.

Go to BUILD YOUR TEAM at the top of the screen and look for local investors or meetups in your area.

I suggest talking to other landlords in your area or up-to-date on the current landlord tenant ordinancesHere in Chicago (Illinois) there is no limitation on income stipulations for screening and as other said, there’s no federal stipulation either.Like @James Wise, I would move onto the next tenant without blinking an eye!

It also allows screening for future tenant replacement. 

They can’t spend $5,000 per month on marketing, pay $1500 for a professional web presence, pay $600 monthly for SEO; or afford to pay VAs to screen responses.  

Hi all,I'm a new small-time landlord figuring out my process for screening tenants for an apartment in Chicago.

I figure if these issues happen in the mere beginning/inquiry stages, how are they going to effectively screen/place tenants & manage my properties?
