In my opinion, the key is buying a nice property in a nice neighborhood that people want to live in (so you get a high volume of inquiries when you post for rent) which allows you to be extremely picky with who you let into the house.

The realtor says she doesn't have enough rentals for all the inquiries she gets.

:@Steve Might  it just comes down to numbers.That is what I used to think, but after making inquiries I was told the seller had a preference for the other buyer because he thought he could close for sure.  

You create a landlord account, then potential tenants are emailed a link to complete the inquiry (you can select to have them pay the $25), and then the results are emailed to you for review. 

This is because the act of applying for a new credit card generates a hard inquiry on your credit report, which can lower your credit score temporarily.To increase your chances of still qualifying for a mortgage loan, you can follow these suggestions:Wait until after your mortgage application to apply for new credit cards.Pay down any high credit card balances to reduce your credit utilization ratio, which is a significant factor in determining your credit score.Make all your credit card payments on time to show lenders that you are a responsible borrower.Keep old credit accounts open, as a long credit history can positively impact your credit score.Consider working with a mortgage lender or loan officer who can help guide you through the mortgage application process and help you find the best loan program for your specific situation.

We listed a unit and got about 60 inquiries.

Tons of inquiries and looky look.

- Are you responding quickly to inquiries?

---Not enough is a sign that the property is not getting enough exposure, has a bad initial view or is priced way to highHow many inquiries are you getting?
