Would there be a value, would you be willing to pay, as a Landlord, to have at your disposal, a tenant ready to rent your property as soon as it's vacant?

I think property management companies try to provide this service. So since many landlords hire these companies, yes. However, it is not realistic. I dont think there could be an affordable service offering a landlord a qualified tenant upon every vacancy.

Anytime there is an vacancy there is an urgency to fill it. Every month vacant is money out of a landlords pocket. Most of the time the landlord has a mortgage payment to pay as well as utilities and maintance while the home sits vacant.

My largest fustration as a landlord is the tenants attitude. They dont seem to understand right from wrong. They dont seem to understand the moral nor legal obligation to pay rent or be responsible for the stuff they tear up.

Exactly. A better issue is a guaranteed tenant. Rent guaranteed, damages guaranteed.

Most tenants are deadbeats, waiting to happen.
