I hired a property manager who did the checks. All of the tenants he found for us were great. We had one tenant I did not have go thru the property manager because my husband went to high school with the guy's sons. What a disaster. He not only did not clean, he stopped up the toilet and left it for weeks until we came to clean up, he used a corner of the kitchen as a garbarge dump when the trash can overfilled and he did not take it outside, he left unwrapped food stuck to the freezer and the refrigerator, but worst of all, the ac broke while he was there for 3 months and he didn't tell us. When we got to the house which was filthy, there was mold and mildew everywhere because the ac had not been working. We had to find an ac to come out on Easter Sunday. I spent 10 hours cleaning up after the guy. Then when I kept his security deposit, he threatened to sue me. I told him to bring it on. Guy had the nerve to call me the next year and ask to rent the house again.
