I wAnt them to realize when I say clean up all this trash or get that drug dealer boyfriend out that it’s serious and I’m not just the guy that mows or changes light bulbs that they can shrug off as some kind of maintenance guy 

We did a quick paint-and-clean and put it on the market to see what would happen and within four days we had a signed contract for 67% more than we paid for it two years ago.

I hear that verification of employment salary is almost impossible from these companies and, if we as a landlord, call the company.Want to do credit check, eviction, criminal etc (as have kids on site and am only asking 1.5 month dep) and so many people are saying their reports came back clean but then they found out things after the rental went bad.Seems ridiculous that someone hasn't cornered the market with an honest reporting company with such an important requirement.Thx

Why am i having hard time finding a clean updated house/apt for rent under 1k in Kansas City area?

Bayshore Blvd. is very clean area with big $$ homes.

Particularly if it is an FYI like chimney cleaning or caps. 

Will also be looking for someone to follow-up on routine maintenance issues.
