I would recommend you get way into the weeds on your due dilligence- septics, roofs, subfloors, hot water tanks, drainfields, etc. 

Send them a standard letter that is credible.

(Please note that I get a significant MSRP discount on my S-W purchases) Emerald is great from a water-based standpoint, but is a lot more pricey and I have not been able to justify buying it for use in my properties outside of one 120 year old banister. 

Wired internet cables for laptopsObviously towels, toilet paper, shampoo, body wash, etc in every bath Keurig for coffee if they'd like someGym in basement Washer/dryerLocks on every bedroomMaybe even a fridge full of beer and water

During the inspection the water heater went bad, and my PM knew I wanted the property so she neglected a new water heater in the deal!

That has less to do with crime (in the area that I live I don't see it as a big issue) and more to do with taxes and tenant-friendly laws.For any area that is higher crime, you should budget for higher vacancy (and significantly higher vacancy if you don't set tight screening standards and have to evict a tenant) and higher repairs and maintenance.Good luck!

I would definitely recommend screening tenants as a standard practice for your own protection, regardless of whether the insurer requires it.

The texture is the standard texture around here too.

Make sure your rejection is in writing and says something like "you didn't meet our standard qualification requirements".

Thanks.I have a building with two panels and two meters and one water line.
