Even for very nice homes that are in high demand, we have received few applications.

You or your contractor will be required to personally meet/call/otherwise communicate with the inspectors at be for whatever building code subdivision you are working with, to see why your applications are being rejected, what it is that they are actually looking for (and then if that is actually legally permissible to be required or not!)

I am using Cozy as my rental application platform, but I think it’s an obstacle for my potential tenants.

They may require a down payment from you.. may request a formal credit application from you requiring that you qualify based on your credit.. lender may or may not release your seller from the note which then may affect your DTI based on exactly how it is structured.

Those properties would not need to be disclosed on the application. 

Being that you live in the home (regardless if you travel a lot, this is your personal home), you can legally be a little more picky about who you choose to rent to... for instance, with a normal rental, you can't discriminate against applicants with children.

They all emailed their applications within 4 hours of each other.

:)My housekeeper does issues invoices once a month and I pay her via a mobile cash application.

Right now where I work currently full time as a leasing agent we use Core Logic to screen applicants.

We finally had a group of applicants apply. 3 roommates, young people in their 20s that all worked together at the local Walmart.
