Having a strong understanding of your "walk away" price (maximum you're willing to pay) gives you leverage and prevents emotional decisions. 

That being said, if I were the tenant, I'd say they were emotional support and then NOTHING can be done.

I’ve also seen success with titles that create an emotional connection—something like, ‘Ultimate Family Escape with Stunning Views!’

It's an awesome way to jump into RE yes its scary at first but as long as you have a criteria going in it eases some of the emotions during the process my biggest thing was lower my cost or keeping it the same.

Because someone looking to live in the property will pay more because it's usually an emotionally drive decision.

A deal killer has no emotions.

Emotion attracts that.

Is anybody able to find renters without pets and is there a way to handle the emotional support animal situation.

When you take all five together they should paint a picture, but I also mentioned your gut is important (not your emotions).
