For those of you that are unfamiliar with the term Interior Designer, that term contrasts with the term Interior Decorator in that a real designer has a formal education in the field.

I personally just use a state specific application, verify everything on the application, then do a formal screening through rentprep.

In the future, begin the formal eviction process on the first day that rent is unpaid (in accordance with your state law).

These meet ups don't have a formal schedule and are a loose format of just mingling around and talking with others over a beer or 2.

Hi @Amanda Gant, Experienced Qualified Intermediaries should provide you with a Replacement Property Identification Form for your use, although your identification does not have to be on a formal Identification Form. 

At least you can terminate in 60 days on a non-paying tenant and avoid a formal, lengthy, and expensive eviction.What towns are you in?

@Matt Chestnut so a PPM is a very thorough, detailed, and formal document that outlines the purpose and risks associated with the sale of a security.

I am wondering if I should treat them as I would any other tenant such as asking for Security Deposits, Signing a formal lease agreement w/ terms, verifying their incomes (to make sure I can get paid and friendship doesn't go sour) and holding up the lease agreement?
