Not sure why the discrepancy in amounts other then number of bedrooms and of course a landlord may choose to rent below market.

I'm wondering about how the courts treat this - ie: say there are discrepancies in local (in state operating LLC) vs that out of state holding company's treatment of the laws - is it a simple, appeal process to get a matter into that holding company's courts? 

In the future maybe make sure a tenant is present with any contractor so as to avoid any discrepancies.

As far as the leads go, did you call the company who supplied you the leads to ask about the inaccurate names discrepancy?

I bet the amount will be higher...then again who knows but at least I can cut out ANY discrepencies!

Pete, you're correct regarding the price discrepancy between neighborhoods.

Also, if there is a big discrepancy in rents, in many cases a rent gap coverage can be offered.

My general philosophy is that there is not a wide discrepancy in expected returns between different markets.

I do my research and know the landlord tenant laws very well in all states and localities where I've owned rentals, which is why I know tenants in MD can sue landlords for 3X amount in discrepancy and that a landlord can't just say a security deposit is forfeit but must provide timely notification of itemized actual damages, plus they have much stricter lead rules, required rental inspections/inspection fees, etc... 

Look out for any discrepancies and red flags.
