I go over most of these in a call back phone call.

I post availability info with property details and rent amount. I make two attempts to call back voice mail messages left for me. VM messages left for me without at least a first name, have one strike against them before we even start,...but I do call them back. Actually sometimes I am ultimately surprised that these people who initially appear to have been raised I the forest by wolves do indeed turn out ok.

That first actual phone conversation is very important and tells a lot All of what you're looking for in your questionnaire can be worked into a more casual first conversation if it flows properly to the point that both sides are interested.

THIS is the time on the phone and showing properties stuff that is and always will be a part of our business. It's the stuff the casual, wanna be, or accidental landlords don't really get.

You have to do it to find good quality tenants

Actually,...I just re read the original posters posting and realized he appears to be advertising the property with an e mail reply request only, and no phone number. What you might be getting in those 15 replies are auto troling for valid active e mail addresses. ,!!
