Nothing like word of mouth referrals.Either way you definitely want a way to check/verify their work before hiring them.

In Minneapolis the tenant has to take the initiative to make an eviction disappear, and it's not always easy.  

I don’t know how much initial equity but if your guess is right 10 cents on the dollar is about right. 

Will talk with them to verify, but im looking at rates currently from under 5% to about 5.5%.. seems even with their largest LOC its over 6% based on current sofr. 

Aloha @Daniel Kam - most of Kakaako has a 180 day rental minimum, so if you haven't checked with your building association, I recommend you verify what the minimum rental period is for your building.If you are allowed to rent for less than 180 days, you will then need to apply for a GET license, and well as TAT/OTAT and pay the appropriate taxes on a regular basis.  

They’re requesting what feels like an unreasonable amount of information, and the demands keep escalating.So far, they’ve asked for:A video tour of my home officeCredit checks on me and my partnerCopies of the deeds for every property we ownA copy of my partner’s home lease and utility billsBusiness phone billsA signed letter from the bank verifying our accountsBank statementsHonestly, it feels more like qualifying for a loan than trying to become a customer.

You could, for the purposes of verifying that you are not renting to someone who is potentially dangerous or financially incapable of shouldering the burden of being a roommate, ask them to apply through Zillow so that you can see their background check, that also gives you the opportunity to have others who might be interested in being your roommate as well, apply.

The first thing prior to this would be to verify this is a good tenant, check the lease, and confirm with the owner with a payment ledger that they have been paying on time since they have been there. 

Verifying last 2 years of rental history very important!

My manger does this all the time.He has an inspection done to verify all the maintenance issue and has someone video the property to verify all the marketing issues.
