Anytime I have a vacancy, once I put the place on the market, typically it is rented to a vetted, screened, and approved tenant within 3 days. 

You take applications screen all and choose the most qualified.

I'm dealing with screening now,  and a good amount of potential tenants with 1-8 evictions,   they need to go somewhere,.. and they can't afford a lot, so they provide a needed service. 

Screen him like they’re becoming part of the CIA, because they could make or break your frustration level while they are there!

They'd have you hunt for deals, network, screen calls etc. 

I am not seeing the accept colleague request button on the screens.  

As for the threads you posted in, look at the upper right side of your screen. 

After screening some of the markets within manageable distance, I believe Philly is good place to buy and hold for a starter like myself to have a taste in REI: relatively lower price to rent ratio, with the potential of appreciation due to the population influx caused by living cost increase in NJ and NYC, and also equally importantly, the high existing demand base to withstand possible impact should anything go wrong in the wider market :)I hope I am on the right track (please tell me if anyone see Philly market differently than I imagined above ).

@Adam Juodis - a lot of the Allure Vinyl planks have underlayment pre-attached, so laying an additional layer yourself is unnecessary, which makes it even easier.

For my medium term rentals, I don't require an application because I get mostly traveling medical professionals and digital nomads who are screened through the booking platform (hello landing).
