Are there dogs in the yard when you have a no-pet policy?

Poor communicators, poor housekeeping skills, prescription med abuse, big dogs that they couldn't properly care for, damaging, etc.

Consider all the things that could go wrong and see if the lease addresses them: unauthorized pets or tenants, early termination, security deposit, lease violations, late rent, eviction, lawn maintenance, parking, etc.5.

Bringing any pets?

Exactly 1 year later my first tenant moved his family in where his kids and dog can play in the massive yard while raising 2 cows in the barn.

Imagine someone harassing your girlfriend, damaging your property, using or selling illicit drugs, dog biting you or your other tenants and creating a flea or noise issue, or any number of other potential issues.

Alternatively if they all love the deal, that's also likely a good sign.You can get a dog of a property in a crap neighborhood that will yield a 13.6% gross cap (not saying yours is), but that certainly doesn't tell the whole financial picture of how the asset will perform.

How many struggle in there bookings, to find way around, ask "what is this corn-dog like thing"..... 

Should you add a playground or dog park, or would your money be better spent on putting in gated access?

Mentioning unique perks like 'Game Room,' 'Lake View,' or 'Pet-Friendly' can really draw people in.
