My tenants Lease Agreement expired May 2023, putting them Month to Month, is this still applicable?

It’s a real hodgepodge of applicable regs.  

—namely, Isaac Winkles, reporting companies for which Isaac Winkles is the beneficial owner or applicant, the National Small Business Association, and members of the National Small Business Association (as of March 1, 2024)—are not currently required to report their beneficial ownership information to FinCEN at this time.This email is not intended to provide legal advice or serve as a substitute for legal research to address specific situations.

I don't know Ohio's laws regarding disclosure, so it sounds like that may not be applicable. 

Our biggest climate risks in central Texas are typically wind and hail, so anything of concern regarding the roof could get an applicant declined including trees too close to the roof surface, roof over 10 years old, etc.

I'm currently using a website that I created 4 years ago, posting vacancies by creating a page and cross linking it to a form in my website for applications.  

Use the top three or four discriminators so applicants can screen themselves.Then you need to have clear screening criteria yourself.

An appraiser likely won't be able to value a 1-4 unit property based off STR rents (whether projected or actually incurred), and if they are, the lender won't lend off said valuation for their applicable value (value they're lending off of). 

You need to research/know the rules, laws and regulations (including HOA if applicable), like you'd do in any US city.

It is a little slower to find a tenant, in our case maybe 3-4 weeks instead of 1-2 to get our average 10 applicants for 1 signed lease.
