We have just finished rehabbing an apartment, electrical wiring, plumbing, paint, furniture, everything new.The FIRST vacation rental (Airbnb) host the we received just left and it smelled tobacco like crazy.We made i...

We will be pre-screening future potential tenants via a Google Form, an idea we found here on the forums and have already put into action.The potential tenants are a younger couple, are "very interested" in the unit, applied to our listing on Cozy within an hour of viewing the unit and each purchased the credit & background checks as well.The couple currently live separately from one another and they're now looking for a place together.Brief background on the girl:- Non-smoker- Monthly income meets the 3x rent requirement- Background check looks clean (SSN Trace, Civil, Sex Offender, Global Watchlist, National - all are Clear)- Credit score meets the 620 requirement- Credit report looks okay with the majority of her lines of credit showing as currentBrief background on the guy:- Non-smoker- Currently unemployed due to the coronavirus situation- Background check looks clean (SSN Trace, Civil, Sex Offender, Global Watchlist, National - all are Clear)- Credit score does not meet the 620 requirement- Credit report looks horrible (no lines of credit are current, and plenty are in collections)Our thoughts & concerns at this point, and I'm trying to place weight on those where we should and lessen the weight where we shouldn't:-The girl seems to be friendly & polite, her parent's live nearby, and her credit/background checks indicate that she's relatively financially responsible.

Hi, I'm looking at buying my first house. It seems in great conditioner at a fair price, besides the fact that the owners smoked inside for around 15 years. I'm happy to clean and paint, hire a contractor to refinish ...

That was something like we are young professionals, into the outdoors, we don't party, not smokers, and mostly new to Denver. 

You probably wouldn’t take health advice from a heavy smoker and drinker...

I'm getting inquiries, but people are either smokers (absolutely no way would I rent to smoker).

I met significant other, too.Good point about being concerned about my possessions, too.Aside from the bogus check, the person just told me they're an outside smoker.

I am a smoker myself and smoke outside.
