@John Williams politicians at all levels of government are taking away landlord property rights to protect slum-tenants.We'll soon be like Ontario, Canada where they can't charge application fees or security deposits and it takes 12 months to evict a tenant.Unfortunately, landlords are too cheap to make political donations to stop the madness:(

I don't care if mortgage broker shop got 10k applicants more in Dec23, I bet you a lot higher # of those are less qualified and not even qualified to buy than expected.

I suggest advising the applicant that you can hold it 10 days rent from, start their lease after that and they can use the additional time to move in at a leisurely pace.

Lease, Notices, applications, etc. 

I’ve never charged for an application, I use 3rd party, such as apartments.com.

They have done nothing bad or wrong for me to dismiss them as an applicant.

im looking for application screening forms (application criteria guidelines ) in washington state. 

When you have the best product at a given price point you can shouldn't have to wait for the best applicant at that price point.

We have two possible applicants.

I have applicants (a professional couple in their thirties) to rent a single-family home I own.
