Much easier to rent, and the landlord miraculously takes care of it

Those are the tenants you want. They choose to rent, they aren't forced
to. I have known several people that fit that description.


They also do not have to sell a house when they want/need to move.

That's precisely why we are renting now that we have sold our house in

Because renting makes good sense for some people. The DIY days are rapidly 
going the way of the wooly mammoth. Most younger folks (gen x,gen y, 
millenials) are incapable of understanding "lefty loosey, righty tighty." 
(present company excepted) If you can't fix it, you have to hire someone who 
can. That usually is not cheap. ‎Plus yard work, grass cutting, tree trimming, 
leaf raking, fence painting, etc. Even owning a condo has it's own set of 
headaches, especially when it's time to sell. Much easier to rent, and the 
landlord miraculously takes care of it all. All they have to do is go to work, 
and watch TV when they get home. 

Those are the tenants you want. They choose to rent, they aren't forced to. I 
have known several people that fit that description.

Re: [MBZ] Looking for new renters

[Curt Raymond via Mercedes]

Bad credit means they're bad with money and don't respect the people they owe 
money to. One of those people will be you. If they've already got bad credit 
then screwing you won't hurt them any more.
Good credit means you pay your bills on time, it doesn't mean you have enough 
money to buy a house...
Lots of money does not equal good credit. The people I know with the worst 
credit often have the biggest paychecks, they just plow through it buying 
stupid crap.

If you can't get good reliable tenants with good credit then sell the property. 
It serves no purpose otherwise.

Re: [MBZ] Looking for new renters

[Floyd Thursby via Mercedes]

I had a triple dekka back when in Dawchestuh (Dawt) and had one set of 
tenants, these two girls who played hockey (one was a goalie), who up 
and left one day while I was at work, and left their car (an old VW 
wagon) sitting in my driveway.  Door was not locked but wheels were 
angled and steering locked so I couldn't roll it out into the street 
where the popos would have towed it. It sat there for quite some time 
until one day it too disappeared.  I had their security deposit, at some 
point a few months later one of them called wanting her money back, I 
told her she owed me money for vehicle storage for 2 months or whatever, 
when could she get it to me as it was more than the deposit. Never heard 
from them again.  I got the realtor who sold the house to me to find me 
a new tenant, single woman with 2 teenagers, they were great.


I was actually making money living in that house, the other 2 apartments 
more than covered my mortgage, even with the hassle. Great country, America.

Re: [MBZ] Looking for new renters

[Curt Raymond via Mercedes]

On the other hand I was a very good renter. One time I had a check bounce, this 
was after maybe 5 years of on time payments. I called the landlord right away, 
he didn't even know about it yet. He laughed and said I was the only tenant 
he'd ever had go so long without a bad payment and the only tenant he'd ever 
had call him to apologize. I drove to his office (an hour each way) to hand 
deliver CASH payment to be sure nothing would happen this time. He thought it 
was hilarious.
The following year he called because he had to raise the rent. We'd been paying 
$450/mo (this was '99-2005) and he says to me "Would $465 be okay?" uhhh, yeah, 
we could handle that...

Re: [MBZ] Looking for new renters

[Dimitri via Mercedes]

Let someone else deal with it. Let her find some kind of public housing 
authority until she fixes her credit.

Agreed on all points, trouble in the past indicates trouble in the future.
A friend's wife had that kind of "my ex-screwed me" troubles that turned out to 
be "I have no self-control with credit cards" her credit card is encased in a 
block of ice in the freezer. If she really needs it she can have it...

I have some rental contract samples that are downright harsh on the
tenant.  Most contracts in a college town are very harsh on the tenant.
It is the only way the owner can have a chance against the rental
laws.  You need a harsh contract, not the OK contract.

Measure twice, cut once.

Rent is an extension of credit the instant it becomes due.

Did you draft a new contract yet?
