That event is heavily weighted to seller carryback investing rather than NPL investing. 

(Verbal agreements don't carry a lot of weight with real estate, so you'd likely prevail either way, but do you want the tenant's free "tenant's rights lawyer" to drag you through the mud for months, or weeks?)

It took hours to set all those checklists up but for $10/month, its worth its weight in gold because I don't have a single doubt that my housekeeper knows what to do because its on the checklist. 

The lighter color paint will make the rooms appear bigger too.

Even just a weight and breed limit would be a start.

You can of course fill out your dream sheet, but it doesn’t really carry much weight in the PCS location selection to be honest, especially for a new A1C.  

I put a lot of weight on tenants who have proven to be low maintenance. 

I have two daughters myself (11 and 13), I can only imagine the weight of what's happening.

A referral from someone of BiggerPockets or a local REIA should hold a lot of weight. 

Tenant understands that although the Landlord makes every effort to make the Leased Premises safe and secure, this in no way creates a promise of security.I've never had to go to court over something like this and am not sure it would carry any weight but I figure if I'm making a good faith effort to keep the place secure and I have this in the lease it can't hurt.
