To help speed your search up try using the 1% and 50% Rules to screen potential properties.  

There are a lot of great options out there; aside from providing the basics (ie. listing tool to get the property published to 10+ major sites, scheduling tool to schedule viewings, tenant screening with comprehensive applications which include nationwide criminal background checks + credit checks + eviction history, digital lease creation tool, rent collection tool, and maintenance tracking tool), some services also offer your tenants additional capabilities which makes it an easier sell on your end when getting them to transition over (ie. all of the other tools in addition to their ability to report on-time rent payments to the credit bureaus; this can create an added incentive for making sure they pay that rent on time).

Hello BP,What is the best way to give out screening applications and collect the screening fees for potential tenants?

I'd like to list it as soon as possible to start pre-screening but I won't have pics of it till I'm finished with it.

Advertise, take applications, screen, select the most qualified.To restrict your requirements to vets only is discriminatory. 

Money aside, these types of SFH's can just be tough to deal with as the low price tends to attract tons of inquiries from a bunch of prospects that are in no way qualified to pass even the most basic tenant screening process.

I would advise you file the eviction notice simply to protect yourself since I do not know your state landlord tenant codes and suspect you have not bothered to learn them either.Before you attempt to rent it again I suggest you take the time first to learn the laws, learn how to properly screen tenants and learn how to operate your business.

Good evening BP,I have seen a few posts asking how to analyze a rental property.While I was analyzing a property tonight with my wife, I decided to take some screen shots and go through how we analyzed it.

There's one thing that I'm worried about right now and that's the appraised value.I listed the house at 377K and got an offer at 370K which I accepted.I'm worried now based on the comps of other three bedrooms that sold in the area which sold for under 350k but all were in original condition.The property directly next door to me sold for 365k in which it appraised at but it has one extra bedroom and bathroom which totals 420 square feet more than my house but that property was also in original condition from the late 70s.I did a complete renovation in the kitchen and bathrooms and throughout the house as well as replace the roof and siding and added a screened in porch.If you guys can please let me know if you have any ideas on what the appraiser may look at that can help me or anything I can do to increase my chances of this house appraising where I want it would be greatly appreciated!

A lot of the items you mentioned I feel would have been caught before signing up with the proper screening.
