Hell, I even get a copy of their driver's license.  

Do you feel the additional drivers of the Northern Lights in areas like Fairbanks would help increase winter occupancy better than places like Anchorage?

The main drivers are proximity to substation (power grid), flatness, and exposure to the sun.

Increased rates makes it more difficult for first time buyers because 1) the financed payment goes up 2) it decreases movement which results in boomers, etc not downsizing which lowers volume on the market and helps keep the prices from falling.Other drivers for these large rent increases are the recent property appreciation (last 10 years have had huge RE appreciation) and rents lag the property value increases, the Covid eviction moratorium has identified new risk that must be reflected in the income, the continuing trend to move to high growth areas which results in a large housing shortage in these areas, the lag of new housing starts that has existed since the Great Recession.  

- upping your max # of guests somehow- "no cleaning fee" & upping the nightly rate accordingly CAN be a big driver of bookings in some markets- having your listing/pics done professionally (by someone who specializes in STRs)- a great outdoor area- if you wanna spend $, i'm seeing lots of people adding pickle ball courts & more stuff to do outside like that - having a car there that they can rent on turo for cheaper than the rental cars from the airport

Additionally, if you have concerns that he may damage the property if he gets upset, that isn't a good reason to allow them to stay; it's a bigger driver to not renew the lease and get a better tenant in. 

I work a full-time job, a side gig as a food delivery driver, moderate for BiggerPockets, gym, family, friends, & etc, but I still self-manage my properties usually from my cell phone, lol!

They will defend the claim and know the legal levers to pull in situations like this...I recently did the same for an auto claim that we clearly aren't liable for, but the other driver's insurance disagrees.

BP, I’m trying to understand the Providence, RI market, specifically focusing on the supply and demand drivers of the multifamily market.

HI BP,I've been thinking about what to ask from tenants in case of issues...besides a copy of their gov't ID (Drivers or passport), credit report stating full name, address and birthday, what else do you all typically ask for?
