@Jerryll Noorden I haven't had to deal with returns or damage yet, but I use bigger retailers that, I would assume, have a pretty seamless return procedure.

Don't stick your nose in the toilet though... but sniff for muff smells (mold and water damage)

I do allow same-day check-ins and frequently have them.I do not ask them to strip the beds - this is at my housekeeper's request, so they can better identify any stains or damage to the linens (easier when it's on the bed than in a pile on the floor).  

You'd still lose money from the original price, but it might be less damaging than a short sale.

If you show just enough, then there are others who show way more and can influence the seller in a bidding war or multiple bids.

@Ryan Blake I am curious how the replies influenced her decision? 

So I provide blinds and usually the faux-wood plantation style that are a little more expensive but it makes for a better impression on prospective tenants  and I charge for any that are damaged upon exit. 

You don't want this, (but it is cheaper) with this type of policy the damage you have has to be caused by something specifically included in the policy for coverage to apply.In the end you need to determine exactly what your needs are. 

I have structural reports from 4 years ago that indicate that roots from trees planted against the house were damaging the house.
