I would assume that older adults would be more likely to settle in one place if the home was reasonably priced and clean.   

Husbands huff and puff but at the end of the day its the wife that will make the final decision to pull the trigger and that decisions is based on female things IE how the house looks  whats in the kitchen the bathrooms the master etc. 

Does that make females 'Governess'?

The first thing I do when I receive an incomplete application, including an application only filled out by one of the adult parties that plans to live there, is contact the applicant to explain that the application is incomplete as received.  

One of the things I've tried to do in my adult life is to learn from other peoples success and mistakes.

You're also a guy, so you can afford to take a little more risk than a female in terms of where you live and who lives with you.  

Thanks BPYou should always screen and approve every adult that wants to occupy.

As somebody who has been fortunate enough to have a couple of really good mentors over the past ~15 years of my adult life, I can say without a doubt that there is almost nothing more valuable.With that being said, you can't really "force" finding a mentor.

Are you saying that I should run credit checks on all perspective adult tenants.

I was at an open house that was rehabbed.The entire house was rewired.The closets had lighting in them.Every female that walked through the house, said: "I wish that my closets had lights in them."
