Take the pets photo, get proof of insurance, shot card registration, rabies and whatever else makes you safe and then I have no problem renting to pets.If they pass that inspection show up at their current residence and ask to go inside and inspect for pet damages.

Telling a tenant they have lost their deposit usually gets an "excited" response.After the eviction take plenty of photos before throwing anything away or you may be the proud owner of a missing diamond ring.Protect you self.

The neighborhood is inner city with many collages surrounding it.Applicant must have current photo identification.Applicant's monthly household income must exceed three times the rent.

If they did then they got the letter.I think most tenants that are threatening to sue do not follow through, not saying your may follow through or not.I would call their bluff and see what happens.If you have documentation and photos of the damage you should be fine.You can always consult with an attorney.

If she complains about photos, just wait until you try and show it or inspector(s) want to spent 3 hours poking around every corner.

Document everything and take a million photos.

From there it should be fairly easy to figure out what you are going to need to do to make it work.My exact thought from the 1st photo.

Our county GIS sites also typically provide a photo of the comparable property.   

It will allow you to post photos and descriptions as well as the basic info like rent and security deposit and whether you allow pets. 

I do a title search and mortgage verification on properties I'm purchasing, but only once the deal is ready to be finalized, so the cost is nominal.
