ParticipantParticipantParticipantParticipantParticipantSeems like if it is too good to be true…..
I told these people that I wanted to meet their dog and that I would do a credit check. They offered me a credit check they had “just had done”. I said no, I would run my own. They changed their mind!
We figure we dodged a bullet on that one and are moving forward more prepared and forewarned!
I have the application in hand, will definitely run credit check, and the lease ready to be filled out.
We had appointments lined up that, thankfully, I did not cancel and will probably do an open house next weekend if needed. So it should still work out and, lesson learned!
Thanks for all of your good input.

ParticipantActually they drove by the property and ran into my boyfriend (complex gated but he was actually out riding his bike) they all started talking he gave them a tour of the condo they loved it. They were told I was doing all the stuff and that I may have already rented it and he knew I had several people lined up. They wrote out a check “to show how serious they were”. Joe really liked them (but he likes everyone and is way too nice), I am going to meet them and their dog tonight (I like very few people and am not that nice), have them fill out an application, do a credit check, and then make a decision.
As a long time renter and dog lover, I will always be open to renting to someone with a “well-behaved” pet. We have told them it will be an extra $500 pet deposit and I will meet the dog (retired police dog).
I chose the monthly rental amount at what i thought was fair, my boyfriend is now hopping up and down that we could get more! I think we are better off getting a good tenant that will stick with us for the long term. i guess I think like a tenant rather than a landlord? As a tenant if my landlord is fair and doesn’t mess with me or raise rent and I like the place I will stay for years and not do anything to make them think about me or consider raising the rent. I know I am probably a little different than most tenants. Hopefully, I am not too naive about this whole thing. That is where I am hoping the application/credit check will confirm.
I like the open house idea, I should have consulted you folks before I posted on craigslist. This group is really a wealth of info!
