I admit I haven't refreshed my memory with everything that was posted, but I went to the initial post which states:"I recently came across a new strategy that I don't quite understand and it sounds too good to be true.

Based on what you wrote [and didn't write] in your comments here, Adam, it doesn't seem like a good idea for her to move in yet.Last thing: there's nothing wrong with putting something in writing to protect yourself and/or refresh each other's memories.  

Depending on where your property is located and the current shape of the property (last time property was refreshed with paint, updated appliances, cosmetic fixes, etc.) a $700 dollar a month rent may not be warranted. 

Refresh my memory, the 10 things to consider, or something like that?  

This unit was sparkling, with brand new appliances and professionally cleaned when they moved in.

My business partner and I were discussing this the other day, about how refreshing it would be to see a PM company offer certain guarantees to us as owners.

I could get $100 more a month and maybe attract a better tenant if I can get the kitchen to sparkle a little more.

Anyway, they just moved out and the paint needed some refreshing (wipe pet slobber :), the yard was full of dog droppings, and the carpets needed to be cleaned.
