Once you know them, write down your criteria for tenant screening, and then follow it to the letter.

@Jim Henderson You've maybe seen this guide before, but Biggerpockets has a great guide to screening tenants.

@Tamir Walton  Go to the top right corner of the screen and click "search the site".

I still do detailed estimates when getting to the point of writing an offer on a house but for screening out the new daily forclosures and auction houses that come up, im trying to get a simple formula for the rehab portion. 

I guess it is liability, the agent can't be looking up a map on the screen and make a decision that may be subjected to errors and interpretation.However my flood insurance is bought from FEMA, FEMA is the one publishing the new flood maps, I find it insane that I need to hire a professional surveyor to tell interpret FEMA maps, give me a piece of paper so I can give it to the insurance agent, who will then update their information to ask FEMA to adjust accordingly.Also, there is one property where I am partially in one zone and partially in another zone.This property I am like 85% in ZONE X (lower risk) and 15% in ZONE AE (higher risk). 

However, for my last tenant screening I googled Smartmove promo codes and I believe I found a different discount. 

Screen like you would any other.

We put solar screens on west windows even with low e glass , and insulate west facing garage doors.

Within every rental price range, there are a host of tenants - that's what the screening / meeting process is for.

Very popular about 60 years ago and they probably leak air like a screen door.
