I only sent out reminders because I had a lot of law students who would have the rent check sitting on their dresser, but they were so exhausted that they'd just forget to put it in the drop slot (the owner I worked for was old school and wasn't interested in online options).It seems like the only reason you need to contact your tenants is to tell them how much they owe in utilities. 

But, you'd be amazed at how someone supposedly broke finds money for new cars and cigarettes and the casino, etc.  

I had seven people slotted, 5 showed and of those, 2 would have likely met my criteria and signed leases.One thing I definitely learned: "we are still looking and we will get back to you" = they are not interested.  

There is a $35.00 Non refundable background check that the applicant needs to pay to smartmove.Look at the ID of the person when they get to the property,.......and make sure it matches the person.....A quick tip on showing......and setting rental prices.......Do a "soft advertisement on Craigslist with all the info.....but without the actual address.....just the name of the street.....see if you get lots of responses quickly.......if you do......that means you need to take the ad down for a couple days and then re advertise it at a higher price..............I advertise on CL and when the phone rings.....Do NOT ANSWER.............let people leave voicemail .....you want to see if when they leave a message they sound like someone that you may feel comfortable talking with on a daily basis......And DO NOT DO OPEN HOUSES..............What you need to do is when the first person you talk to that you get a good vibe with expresses an interest in seeing the house......you tell them I'm showing it Saturday at 10am and Sunday at 3pm...........then be quiet.....they will pick a time.......and you repeat that process with everyone that calls and make sure it at or around the same time slot as everyone else.....Don't tell them other people will be there also......When they do show up and they see other people there also.....it creates more of a demand for the room :-)   Also...pick a time that is withinn 24 hours of talkin with the person....if you talk with them Monday afternoon....tell them you are showing it tonight at 7 and tommorow at 6.        

https://thenevadaindependent.c...Nevada state governor Sisolak is expected to announce Tuesday evening (tonight) the closure of non-essential businesses, including casinos across the state of Nevada.  

How do casinos and state lotteries profit or fund everything they promise to fund? 

@Jonathan S. lots of people are making assumptions that he will be trouble down the road, which is possible but not guaranteed.

I’m guessing you believe the casino coming online will be a good thing?

I will take the contrarian view here... this is an owner occupied purchase correct and your using one of your mortgage slots to buy a 3 unit..

The location is awesome though for the Navy and Air Force presence that is 5 min away (NRL, Bolling AFB) and of course the MGM Casino + National Harbor.
