If you own a rental property with the intention of collecting passive income indefinitely (of course who knows what the future holds) you should send your tenant:New air filter (if you have a HVAC) every X monthsGet the filter with the least amount resistance, meaning buy the “worst” quality one and send the replacement filters more oftenThe worse the filter the easier the fan has to work to circulate the airHigh priced filters trap more “stuff” but require more power and wear and tear on your HVAC unit.

What to look for in a good tenant

You don’t want to be in a position where you’re wondering if something has broken in the unit, and whether or not that will be communicated correctly (and in a timely manner) by the tenant.Other things to make note of if they’re already a resident of your property:the tenant is consistently late with rent payments or making excuses as for why rent was received late (even if they communicate a lot, if they’re always telling you rent might be late, that can put a damper on any plans you might have around paying your own bills, or taking care of your own financial obligations).non-payment of rentletting other guests stay for extended periods of time without approvala bit more obvious, but clear violations of the lease with no regard for the repercussions.not communicating about things that need to be fixed before they become bigger issues (ie. broken bathroom fan - and rather than communicating that it happened, it remains broken; possibly leads to mold issues as the tenant continues to take hot showers).Again, some of these are very general, but if the person does not come across as being too responsible, then chances are you may run into other issues with them down the line.
