I've had an applicant that looks really good on paper. Lots of desirable things about the couple.

I did the in-home inspection. The lawn was mowed but full of weeds and dead dry spots. The "beagle cross" is a Treeing Walker Coonhound and he bayed loudly all the time I was there. The house is grubby and smells of dirt. Not filth, but clearly not much routine cleaning and I am sure the carpet was never cleaned in the four years they have lived there.

So, sorry. I can not rent you my brand new condition house in the sort of neighborhood where everyone has perfect yards and it is always quiet. --76.178.xxx.xxx

RB, and no tenants. I have the only rental house in that neighborhood. It makes a huge difference. --76.178.xxx.xxx

One time drove by house not far from apartment building where out on the front lawn there must have been at least $60 dollars of aluminium beer cans there where you already know what the priorities are. Beer, wine, whisky and cigarettes are very expensive in Canada where if drove over to Niagara Falls, New York, Us could buy a lot even with CDN at $0.72 cents to a dollar. The general rule is that tenants do not care about anything where the next trash out cycle is starting all over again. I remember one tenant wants a rental unit where told that $950 dollars where he said I was slum lord where he moved out as he completely trashed out the rental unit he was living in where only had to deal with one trashed out rental unit. The tenant failed to understand that landlords make money on equity not rent where the better the rental building the more money made. --216.110.xxx.xxx

Your house is clearly not in TN.

I would never find a tenant with a perfect yard with no weeds. --73.19.xxx.xx
