More red tape, but ensures authenticity.

Um, maybe you can tie it into something useful to the tenant like a pre move out inspection to ensure they get the most of their security deposit back?

Don't make value judgements but try to understand the information together to ensure the problem doesn't come back.

This could be a really profitable endeavor for me and I don't want to be unprepared for what to expect and things that I can do to ensure the business keeps coming my way from the group.

I have my own processes that I use to ensure this.

Furthermore, how do you ensure that the tenant will oblige at all?

Landlordwill allow Tenant to host guests on the premises and Tenant agrees to acceptresponsibility to ensure guests do not violate any of the terms of the rentalagreement.

It also complicates the money thing: we would really need to get a substantial non-refundable deposit money up front to ensure that the buyer doesn't flake out and we're left with an orange-and-fuscia house to try to sell.

How often are you performing inspections of your units to ensure nothing is damaged, no leaks, etc..

Whatever you might lose in time and money via court, it is part of the deal and to me, its important to communicate before and after any notice to ensure the tenant is fully aware of where I stand and so I can discover any simple issues that I may have been unaware of.
