I'll guarantee you, 100%, that you will NEVER rent your place, unless you SHOW it. The same goes for finding the "perfect" tenant. There are NO perfect Ts out there, just as there are NO perfect LLs out there, either.

I'll tell you a little about me. I've been a LL for 38 years, and currently have 20 SFHs that I rent out. I run criminal background checks, but I have NEVER ran a credit check on ANY of my past or current tenants.(or even prospective Ts.) I have mostly low income Ts, and I expect cash or money orders for the deposit, and the first 3-6 months rent. ALL of them are on M2M leases, starting from day 1. If they are violating my leases, I talk to them, and if we can"t iron things out, I'll give them a 30 day notice to move, even if its the start or middle of the winter. Currently, I have 3 Ts that have been with me for 5-10 years, and 3 others that have been with me 11-18 years. Good luck to you on finding a new tenant.
