The ability to screen prospective tenants is the difference between collecting horror stories and going broke a little slower in the rental business. There are places where you can make money renting out houses, but I don't live in one of them. I can tell by now if I have a decent prospect over the phone. Anyone that sounds crazy or desperate is probably being evicted.
