There was a guy at the last REIA meeting/convention I was at that was advertising a system for just that.

I advertise 'pets considered', then I make my decision based on the breed and weight of the pet.  

Good tenants aren't going to want to stay in those really bad areas except ones that have no choice.If this is a larger complex installing a fence around the place and an electronic gate at the entrance helps keep criminals out.

A credit score may not reflect that.If you are not an experienced landlord, I suggest you read lots of info on advertising for and methods of screening tenants.

This violates our terms of use and ANYONE found soliciting or advertising via Connection requests will be removed.

Not advertised, the lead was from walking a talking.My student located two more, by walking and talking, off market opportunities, one a failed rehab, another a move-in ready with clean up, the rehab on a sub-to maybe, the other we'll see tonight when I hit the guy up with seller financing, maybe a combination of hard money and SF, we will see.The other property is one I knew of that was going to the market, has been sitting, a tri-plex that can probably be another combination of hard money and seller financing.It will take 30 days without jumping through our tails to close one.When we began, at the end of November/ first of December I think, I told him that he could probably be a landlord by May, that was considering his investor's backing.

You could call yourself a "certified check buyer" or "electronic funds transfer buyer".

They advertise their rate also.

I know here in CO, you have to have your Employing Brokage name and your name on all advertising.

I have done more research on the area and there are other studios in the area for rent (not on this street, but there is a cluster of multifamily buildings a few blocks away who advertise studios for rent - most are about $500/month advertised).These are my estimates (the owner gave me a "rosier" picture).
