I believe it was things like group internet.But adding cell towers to increase income, or getting group discounts to help lower expenses, can help the hard working but low income folks have a good clean and safe place to live at an affordable cost.You can't help someone who is not ready or willing to be helped.

@Charlie Fitzgerald, unfortunately, i only have her cell numbers and her email address.

@Raul Pedrozo I have had tenants not respond to texts or calls only to find out their cell phone number changed or they didn't recharge it.

And they'll get a cell phone and you can text them.  

If the problem is really bad, I would be willing to say consider a "car wash allowance" of say $10 a week which translates to say $40 a month of rent reduction...to me is easier than a car frame or self car washing.Speaking of particular tenants, I once had one who complained that her cell reception while inside is 2 bars instead of 4 bars as if this is something I have any control over. 

With setting up custom rings you do not have to even look to know it is a call to your Google Voice number.During regular hours you can have it forwarded to your cell or office phone.  

Even if it's actually true, why should I care when my mortgage company, cell phone provider, etc doesn't care if I lost my wallet.

Only issue I'm looking into is max number of unrelated individuals in Renton, haven't found code for it yet, but most cities seem to allow only a max of 4 unrelated individuals to a house.Cool thing with this method is I'm still close to Seattle, and have all my living expenses other than food and cell phone paid for via the rents. :-)

Sure, there may be some who have to fight with the credit bureaus to fix errors, but I doubt that a credit report that you would deny a tenant based on, would be that big a mystery.For instance, judgments for cell phone and cable bills, or one for a previous landlord.  

Most apartment buildings have phone numbers on the internet, so I call those numbers to verify, not the cell phone number a tenant gives me.
