Plus I started talking to worn out older landlords doing it the "old way".. showing every unit before they get an application, getting stood up by tenants (we use video walk thrus, and upload them to our page, we require an online application filled out and approved before we take the time to meet with them and show a place). 

I had an applicant that disclosed an emotional support dog when they came to see the place.

Any professional management company is going to use a management application that will immediately spit out real time reports. 

I agree with @Don PetrasekGoing overboard on the rehab and raising the rent too much in C/B areas will really limit the amount of applicants you get.

He is a licensed applicator anyway . 

:Please give me some advise.Best advice I can give you is:1) Screen your applicants thoroughly2) Have a good/strong lease3) Enforce the terms of your leaseBonus tip:  Assume anyone who smokes outside, will also smoke inside. 

In this case this 70% rule doesn’t seem like it’s applicable. 

Featuring the planks may do that, may not depending on application

Of course, you are correct that landlords must know the applicable landlord tenant statutes.

It has most forms you need, application, lease, rules, pet agreement, 5 day notice etc..
