Funny how Owner paid expenses always seem to run higher than Tenant paid items.

We currently have two applicants on the house, both of which have positives and negatives on their credit reports, so I am hoping I can get some input from more experienced property managers/landlords.Tenant applicant A (husband and wife):- Both credit scores meet our minimum requirements- Income meets our minimum requirements and then some- Only a couple debt items (auto payment, credit cards, etc).

The other item that sometimes comes into play is if you are flipping a property. 

Hi @Chris Penny,Whoever you have as the property management company you have lined up to take care of the property should have their pulse on the items that affect rent.  

But it should not matter in this case because you tried to remedy it anyways (so the court could say its an invalid line item, but cant find you at fault ).As for the actual signing of the lease, if you acknowledge that she lived there or accepted any funds from her or just the fact that her name was on the lease is proof enough for her.As for her suing for the total rents of 5 people kind of helps you out. 

at the least, make them give you an itemized list and receipts of how the deposit was applied.

In regards to the "line item" adjustment for the difference in rooms, it would be taken from the $ per sqft.

I just feel like I'm getting ripped off when I see the itemized bill and 16 man hours of work for $2000.

I saw this in another discussion and I believe it was posted by Deanna McCormickThe following is a partial list of charges that will be deducted from the security deposit if you fail to clean these items.
