However, we will in some situations do an on-the-spot deposit return when a place is left pristine rather than making the tenant wait the 30 days the law allows us.We have found that what tenants really appreciate is being treated RESPECTFULLY and receiving good VALUE and service for their hard earned money.

As @Sara C. pointed out with the BP leases above; that should suffice.I never had my friends on leases because you hoped there is a level of respect between each other. 

Sally's "mortgage qualifying income" is obviously a METRIC BOAT LOAD higher than Johnny's, but what are the implications for their respective federal tax bills?

At the end of the day, let us just hope these types of folks find some self respect and try to make the best of the cards they're dealt like most of the members here on BP have decided to do by learning how to invest in real estate.
