They already scraped and painted it but management tried to charge $250 for doing so, which i argued stating the cause of the damage was the lack of ventilation.

it's probably just a matter of casting a wider net in terms of applications. 

If the tenant is making the situation worse by not allowing the repair to be made then you should charge them for the repair. 3.

Also in regards to outstanding mortgage, most of these will be charged off by the bank as bad debt if they have not reported it as a foreclosure.

In most cases, they learn of the transaction only when a Certificate of Occupancy (CO) application or a permit is submitted for repairs or inspections. 3.

You could charge a higher interest rate and negotiate the down payment that way you still get your money monthly & not worry about repairs etc. if the buyer defaults, you get the property back.

I'm using a service called 'PetScreening' where the tenant fills out an application on their pet (birth date, shots, bite history, etc) and based on the answers given a 'fido score' is given to help the Landlord figure out the risk associated with the pet and the reasons why the score was given.

I'd like to know other landlords' experience of the application, placement, inspection, and renewal process

In this group, you get many exclusive benefits, including a discounted management fee rate of 9% on all properties managed by PPMG, plus the $250 application fee for new applications is waived.This property will be one of my highest cash-flowing properties.

I would also provide a small line of credit to the partnership which I would charge for of course.
