OP my wife and I went thru this exercise about 4 years ago.

Credit scores are tricky because there could be items like medical debt or student loan debt that weighs the score down. 

You are one car breakdown or medical bill away from paying rent since you don't have an emergency savings.  

The trick is asking them what happened, usually it is for medical which I get. 

Any other little exercises like this would be awesome!

With no allergies to hold me back, I enjoy an active lifestyle, making exercise a daily habit.

My main concern on the outer islands is medical and infrastructure.

Whether the property manager charges to file the eviction (we do not) is a separate issue- a professional management company should file the eviction for you.Regarding the arrears rent, again, a professional manager should be letting you know that the renter has fallen behind and why (did they have a medical emergency? 

Haven't had to exercise this quite yet but I'm wondering if you can have the same kind of stipulation where you're allowed to pass along costs directly associated with your tenants setting off the alarm if it's the same person repeatedly? 

Bob, I have gone through that exercise and came up empty.
