We have a minimum score to qualify and the deposit is on a sliding scale depending on the score, with additional deposit amounts for poor history like BK and/or personal factors like pets.

Was there a pet on the premises?

So we ripped out the carpet,but don't know what to do about the tile. As a good flipper we feel like we should just rip it out also,but it's nice looking tile,can it be deodorized and cleaned.We know we'll need to use...

I came across a site with rental agreements, move-in checklist, pet addendum's, etc. and wondered what may be the con's, if any, of having documents readily available.

I'd love to get rid of the siding on the front of the house under the protection of the current covered porch and eventually remove it completely from the house (think board and batten or clapboard-vinyl siding is a big pet peeve of ours)We have a habitat re-store nearby and many small sawmills that we can visit.

No, a pet deposit is for the damage that can potentially be caused by the pet.

I just bought this 8-plex, where pets are only allowed if approved, deposit paid, etc.

I don't have a pet policy because of pet dander allergies of the current tenant.

The house smells like urine and after asking around, I've determined that it wasn't a pet but the elderly former owner.

If you use a standard lease and add in stuff about pets and tenant liabilities for damages and the tenants do not like it they can go somewhere else. better to be more detailed then not, cover your own butt man.
