There are two conflicting thoughts here, to me:-One says that you are limiting the number of people interested in the condo because they won't be able to rent it out, thus lowering the prospect pool and price.

We've discussed it with a few prospective tenants and they seemed genuinely happy about the suggestion.If you want your landlord to start reporting your payments to help build/solidify your credit, I think you should talk to them and see what options they can come up with.  

According to the lease agreement "Tenant shall not UNREASONABLY without consent to Landlord to enter the premise to exhibit the unit to prospective tenants."  

Issue is Electric vs gas :(  utils will be expensive and you need to address that at lease orally with the prospect.

Always do the math analysis and try to look at all properties if you have the time to look at prospective properties before you make an offer or at least have a clause in the sales contract that allows you the time (about 10 days) to make a detailed inspection on the prospective property and possibly get out of the deal without a penalty that will hurt you too much.Do not try to do everything yourself.  

I was out driving for dollars this morning and came across a prospect. 

-Tenant shows the property to a prospect that was late (I had left) and claimed via email that I told them they could do it.

OLD style prospecting

Be happy with the niche you select and know the market well too, especially the best locations.Always remember to do a math analysis and try to look at all prospective properties before you make an offer or at least have a clause in the sales contract that gives you some time (about 10 days) to make a detailed inspection and possibly back out of the deal without much of a penalty that will hurt you too much.  

And do they have any existing prospects for employment, interviews lined up, etc... or are they moving blinding and hoping it just works out?
