It’s easy to say “just screen better,” but I imagine truly tightening up criteria without killing occupancy can be an art.Since you’ve seen this play out firsthand, I’d love to hear more—what specific strategies have you used to filter out the bad tenants from the good ones?

These small conveniences can save you time and money in the long run.For rent collection, you can try Rent.app, which is easy for tenants to use and keeps everything streamlined.

I've definitely made some mistakes here but I'm going to be very candid with the info on the deal, so please go easy on me haha.My brother and I purchased a property on a large lot in Culver City CA in 2020 that was essentially a tear down. 

Easy to dump a lousy rental, but impossible to get back the time we wasted in managing it.

Fees should be clearly stated in writing, easy to understand, and justifiable.

Borrowers should always shop around, especially in the hard money space where it is so easy to quickly get preliminary terms over the phone.

@Scott Davis  Not easy to scale. 

.- Capturing searchers with high-intent- Spend is flexible (unlike ILS networks)- Semi-easy to manage once you get the hang of itThere's a lot more I can share, but hope this is helpful!

Not a lot to add here, just the simple advice to make it as easy as possible to pay rent. 

Take it easy i am still a rookie and trying to learn all things possible.
