Think of all the things that could go wrong and see if the lease addresses them: unauthorized pets or tenants, early termination, security deposit, lease violations, late rent, eviction, lawn maintenance, parking, etc.5.

4 separate showings yesterday and overnight several applications came in through Zillow.I haven’t yet posted renter requirements like credit score, income > 3x rent, no pets…  I’ve had showings.  

Get several of the tomcat poison stations they are safe for kids and pets but mice can go in the little maze and eat it .

oh also - if you are going to allow pets, especially dogs, get extra cash for them. 

They bill themselves as "Pet Friendly".Depending on how large the dogs are, that could be a problem, but the cats and GP aren't a big deal.Good Luck!

I'd hand my buddy the 300-400k cash call our attorneys over to have drinks and loan him the money at 1% less than the lowest current loans they have.With the interest i will build cabins with a view to rent/sell, help my other friend get his fantastic new business venture up and profiting.Any spare time and money I have will be spent doing deals and working on pet projects.

Aside from multiple ongoing code violations, neighbor complaints and damages, they moved in extra people/pets, tried to scam the utilities, stopped paying rent and ultimately had to be evicted. 

Like it would if you had a pet.
