Currently, we are still seeing the leasing department slammed with applicants still wanting rental homes.

But also remember the 1% rule is more applicable on the east coast than in the midwest, your cashflow numbers are not likely going to look near as good as Kansas or other markets such as Birmingham lol.

According to a lender poll we just conducted, in the past two weeks about 50% have stopped taking new applications.

@Troy WinklerI would video tape the property while it looks great occupied.

Just a tip - don't use actual duck tape on ducts.

I haven't actually met the couple yet, so I think I'll go ahead and have them complete an application and show them the property.

How does everyone let tenate applicants that you have chosen another applicant?

We have one vacancy that we will probably leave empty for now unless a really good applicant turns up. 

Post the eviction notice per your lease and applicable law.

In my opinion, based on my limited experience both on the ground and theoretical, this property would cost an investor like me money every year, or perhaps show a false income before needing to take care of serious CAPEX issues, vacancies, or turnover costs.If I can put a real world application in place, which is where I think you are headed, let's say you cash flow about $1500 per month, or 18,000 per year.
