As you become more experienced, your rules/policy will become enhanced. 

This is my first peace of real estate i will be purchasing.

As a landlord, providing a safe, comfortable space and fostering a relationship of mutual respect is a way to enhance quality of life.

Purpose being to enhance communication with my communication adverse tenants which happens to be every single one of them. 

Salam (Peace in Arabic) pros,I'm currently new to the wold of Passive Income "Cash Flow" and want to connect with Property Management Organizations that are within the Alexandria, VA area.

Seems like a small price to pay for peace of mind...I install CO detectors in all properties with gas regardless if someone asks me to do it or not. 

For less than $50 I like the peace of mind knowing my tenant won't panic run out to get the extinguisher if they even remember it is there then have the door lock behind them.As for linking smoke detectors between units I would only do that if required by law.

A part of me would speak "internal voice" why don't you go buy your own place where you can smoke inside (including weed), leave your space heaters unattended, have 20 plus smelly rabbits, bring in the homeless, pile up crap in the garage to where it is a no-walk or "walk at your own risk zone", drink and wake up every morning yelling and screaming at each other all while waking up the entire peaceful quiet cul de sac, change locks at will.......OMG the list goes on. 

@Peace Lily You will have to explain to your tenant that while you fully understand her frustration, the replacement of her personal items would need to be replaced via her renter's insurance.

Property manager finds me a single woman with a trust, audits trust and its sound financially, she just wants a nice 4br house to store some things, have some space and live in peace.
