My properties are in Brentwood, used to be able to get many applicants, but now it's just a trickle in the height of summer and quality of tenants is less than desirable and with much longer DOM. 

Local restaurants and grocery stores? 

You could state to the eviction judge that you discovered material misrepresentations on her application.

Agents help us with operational tasks such as tenant screening & applications, leasing, marketing and listing management, reporting, owner onboarding, phone & email support, maintenance requests, admin support, overnight support, nurturing relationships with realtors and relocation companies, graphic design, bookkeeping, sending owner statements, managing collections, and other back-office tasks.I have some agents in LATAM (Argentina, Bolivia) that I can make introductions to.

I also suggest that the tenant install a camera that stores videos of the driveway, then when tenant has proof, you can send notice to owner next door that he is to eliminate hazards he is creating, or you will sue for damages, especially if it costs you tenants, as they can’t afford and shouldn’t have to deal with repeated damage.

Also since it takes so long for a response (most cases) did you have to resubmit your application?

My previous LTR were professionally managed and Im trying to do it myself this time.Questions: What kind of application do you have them fill out?

@John Williams politicians at all levels of government are taking away landlord property rights to protect slum-tenants.We'll soon be like Ontario, Canada where they can't charge application fees or security deposits and it takes 12 months to evict a tenant.Unfortunately, landlords are too cheap to make political donations to stop the madness:(

:-) I have always just done American Craftsman (Home Depot) or ThermaStar (Lowe's) depending on which store is closing to my job, but truth be told I would think I could find something at a more contractor/landlord friendly price but haven't done well in locating someone yet.

Again, the BiggerPockets store has some books for this or you can learn by watching podcasts, reading blogs, and interacting on the forum.
