btw, my tenants like the app as well.Good luck! 

I have read and am currently reading books on real estate and real estate investing.Following my readings up to date, I am considering house hacking for my first deal in real estate.

This 30 day period begins on or after the original inception date of the policy.

However, after many discussions with my mentor, I decided to pursue that avenue of investment at a later date.

Let them know that is a firm move out date and it can't be extended. 

It is better to lower the price and shift the lease ending date late spring. 

Here’s a common process:1) Pre-Screening (Before Showing the Property)✅ Inform renter of basic qualifications such as income, credit score, pets, move-in date, etc..2) After the Showing (Before Approving the Application)✅ If they’re seriously interested, have them submit a rental application + background check authorization at the same time.✅ This avoids wasting time screening unqualified tenants.3) Before Lease Signing (Final Step)✅ Run the background check before approving the tenant, so you can verify:Credit history & income stability Eviction & rental historyCriminal background (if applicable in your state)Final ThoughtThe best time is after the showing but before lease approval—this ensures you’re only screening serious applicants while minimizing wasted time and costs.

It took us a couple of weeks but we slowly increased their rankings unit they were on page 1 (based on search parameters of course) and they got a 10 day booking soon thereafter.We use Price Labs to check out the date of the last booking.

all of the units were updated except one, which I did put alittle money into to bring it update to date with the others, so that would have helped the value a bit I would think almost a year later. 

Once the results are in, you will upload them to:https://leadcertification.phila.gov/loginIf your property is built after 1978 and you are getting kickback:Sometimes the Phila records are incorrect and they show wrong build dates.
