Credit, criminal check, employment verification, landlord reference, personal reference, as well as a 'gut check' when taking with them all are important when you're screening.

The most important aspect of management in my opinion is tenant screening.

@Dorothy Pruitt-Smith Search the podcasts (or forums) for episodes on tenant screening, it'll be the best thing you ever did!

Flat screen TV's are VERY affordable these days (less than 55 inches for only a few hundred bucks), they allow for MUCH more living space by opening up the room, and nearly everyone wants or has one.

@William KellyAt the top right hand side of the screen, there is a little bell icon.

Anyway, we have been pretty strict with screening process to screen any potential trouble tenants.

An agent is responsible to screen and monitor people who enter your property.

I work try mysmartmove.com perfect for applications, tenant screening, and you can create the ability to charge the tenant for that process.

@Michael Kulusichyou may not want to disclose that on a public forum where you use your full name as a screen name...

Better screening as time has past. 4.
