I’m a property manager that works for multiple landlords… and I have had some awful landlords which I normally have to drop this clients with in three months. We always take a deposit upfront from new clients so we don’t find ourselves with a bunch of repairs and unable to fix them. There is no applications for landlords unfortunately. But, there is good and bad tenants and good and bad landlords. Often landlords can’t afford repairs due to people not paying their rent and it turns into a vicious cycle. Desperation will turn the best of landlords in to slum lords.
