Challenge is where is their motivation to properly screen applicants and get rid of nonpayers?

While living with tenants can pose challenges like privacy concerns and tenant relations, clear boundaries, professional management, and proper tenant screening will help you succeed.

I don't **** with cash payers. 4 Units are currently vacant, being screened for tenants.

Which essentially puts some standards in place and a good guideline for handling all things in the company. ie. company mission, telephone standards, tenant screening process, etc. 

Besides the technical aspects how has it been knowing there is someone living so close and dealing with any potential noise conflicts (loud TV or whatever)?

Networking with local investors through BiggerPockets, Facebook, and meetups can help you navigate the market, while avoiding common mistakes like underestimating expenses, poor tenant screening, and hiring the wrong property manager.Good luck!

So, the first question they usually ask a PMC is about fees - instead of asking about services and HOW those services are executed.EXAMPLE: PMC states they will handle tenant screening – what does that specifically mean?
