Very simple - tell them to call me if they can't figure it out.I would not tell the tenant what I was doing and if it was ever discovered that I had done it - I would explain that I did it as a standard safeguarding of my property - in case the original thermostat should ever fail while no one was there to monitor the space temperature - the backup thermostat would save us all from freezing damage.

Property values and interest rate (but with higher standards) were lower in 2012 than 2007.In general it is often true, but not always.  

. § 2A:18-61.1(f) is an indefinite standard and difficult to measure.

You need to up your standards or life as a Landlord will be very difficult.One violation and I would evict.

When they eventually move out, I plan to do a full renovation to bring the unit up to high-quality standards and maximize its rental potential.I’m happy to connect if you ever want to chat.

By adhering to our standard procedures, we’re able to maintain consistency and fairness across all tenants, avoiding any perception of favoritism.Thanks again for your feedback!

So they need to meet your standards, right? 

Or try the reverse - rehab a property in a Class D Neighborhood to Class A standards and see what Class of tenant you'll get.

However, with a SFH you will lower your standards when vacancy arises more than one month as you have no income coming in to male that payment.  

@Augusta Owens here's some copy & paste info you won't find in a book:)-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------Recommend you first figure out the property Class you want to invest in, THEN figure out the corresponding location to invest in.Property Class will typically dictate the Class of tenant you get, which greatly IMPACTS rental income stability and property maintenance/damage by tenants.If you apply Class A assumptions to a Class B or C purchase, your expectations won’t be met and it may be a financial disaster.If you buy/renovate a property in Class D area to Class A standards, what quality of tenant will you get?
