It felt right
May 16, 2022The million dollar question.
"You have the best Tenants! What’s your secret?!?”
* clears throat *
”Oh, ya know.
I check Facebook.
Maybe Google.
Nothin’ special - I just go with my gut!”
Who can argue with that?
Hmm... take a guess.
Yep - lawyers. Even bad ones can make you look like a jerk face Landlord only renting to folks that look, sound, and vote like you.
Here's how to avoid that.
Have a system for screening Tenants.
Use rental applications.
Call references.
Yada yada yada.
Treat applicants the same.
Don’t trust your gut.
Your magic 8 ball.
Or any other hack you can’t defend in court.
