When have you ever had a lease where the tenant didn't perform, bailed on you, or you found out something about them you wish you had known before closing?

I have had a tenant that didn't pay and skipped and left a mess. The place had a terrible wreak of cigarette smoke. It took two months to get rid of it and repair the unit.

It happens all the time. Read the lease. If you have an out, give them the 30 days. If not, hold your breath.

Have had good luck, lots of checking before hand including social media will tell you a lot about a person. It's amazing what you can find online. Just do your due diligence.

Are you talking about a lease/purchase or a month-to-month rental type agreement?
