"We do not allow emotional support animals - no pets".

Might also be wise to target the younger generation before they get too far into a career or college path.Household income must be 3 times the “Monthly Operation Payment”.Create unique opportunities to create income from excess space in a property (vacation/air bnb, temp housing for travel nurse, students, etc.)Residents may choose to use roommates to meet this requirement.Pet owners buy all the flooring instead of a pet deposit.

Many people have asked about pet and pet deposits. 

Oh, another thing to consider: Figure out your stance on pets.

For my rental ...the first year I was only breaking even once everything was covered but for the upcoming year I will have positive cashflow but not a vast amount due to increasing the rent, allowing pets etc There is a future lrt coming (due to start next year)  it will have 3 stations in close proximity of the house and I am hoping that this will also add appreciation 

However, You are so typical of many investors and it is one of my pet peeves.

It’s more of a pet peeve at this point.

The park is full of trees, grass, a community garden, and a pet run.

I also do not allow unauthorzied pets or significant others or adult children moving in without being screened and added to the lease. 

Otherwise the front of the house is a pure single family.You're right, the back deck is a pet project, and would most likely be used less than anticipated.
