When I'm not listening to podcasts or doing something business related, I am usually outside, dancing, or learning how to make some tasty new food! 

@Rob Ibarra No matter where you look, start with the zoning and make sure you can have a food oriented business at the property. 

We have previously had a firm no pet policy.  

The cost is as low as $20 per pet profile.

The top three pet-friendly cities are all located in Texas, with Dallas leading the pack at 79% pet-friendly rental listings, followed closely by Austin and San Antonio.

The real problem is that the vast number of beginning investors never bother to learn their state landlord tenant codes before they invest.This is my pet peeve with new investors...trying to operate a business requiring knowing the law without having the desire to learn.They should never be allowed near tenants, they need a PM.On the other hand responsible investors that learn the laws first I would strongly advise self managing.

Believe it our not, we still have a lot of success with Craig's list, though not sure if it'll work with newer build assets.I would try to build relationships with businesses that your residents use, such as pet stores, restaurants, dry cleaners, etc.

Also do you allow pets?

I've actually done both, but typically when it's more than 2 people, pets, or kids are involved. 

You have $606 after tax dollars to spend on the rest of life's expenses, including investing, buying flowers for your significant other, cell phone bill, water/electric/vehicle expense/food/childcare/hair cuts/vacation.
