That's fair and reasonable to me.Meet with the prospective tenants face to face when possible and ask questions related to their work, their past living circumstances, their pets, their vehicles, questions that make you feel comfortable that they will take care of your property and pay the rent on time.See the post about Craigslist in this forum for ideas about tenant locating websites.

It is unfortunate but the owner of the dog is responsible for protecting her pet.

Being single, no kids, pets, or obligations, I have found myself with some time on my hands (other than my 40-hr work week), and I've been trying to figure out where to invest that time to build some wealth until I came to BP.

I adhered to the philosophy that if folks are staying for 4-6 months, they are "living" in the property as if it were their home, they bring their pets and sometimes their family visits. 

For instance, I don’t allow pets in my rentals. 

These can include bills for rent, water, electricity, trash, garage fees, pet fees, sewage, and other expenses.

I don't need warning labels telling me to not microwave small pets, drink gasoline, or only operate tubs approved by the government.P.S.

We took over units with pets.

We ideally want to live in the greater San Diego area (Point Loma, North Park, South Park, Normal Heights, Balboa, Golden Hill) in a SFR but would definitely consider an apartment complex if it it meets our needs (parking, yard/patio for the pets, security).TIA.
