Did you a do thorough tenant screening?

Single family homes in good areas are so much easier if you screen your tenant and put the right people in.

The key to successful MF investments seems to be in good screening of your tenants.

There are a million things that could go wrong from a drywall screw penetrating a plumbing line to improper site grading, missing screens, doors/windows not opening correctly and on and on and on.
