This will help weed out first term folks that are either not very responsible yet or that may be forced to live in barracks and decide to get a place they can't afford anyways with some buddies b/c its more conducive to partying.I also give a military discount, but make it contingent on the service member establishing an allotment (military term for direct deposit) to me so I don't have to worry about collecting rent.

Do you collect a bunch of applications and only run the background and credit check on your top candidate with you paying the bill or do you have the tenants pay and check every applicant?

However, I would not allow the super tenant to collect applications due to sensitive information of the applicants, and I would like to meet and talk to the applicants anyway to know who I am dealing with.

In 2013 I purchased my first flip house for 18k and remodeled it while collecting unemployment.
