One of the worst things a landlord has to deal with is definitely complaints from one tenant about another tenant. These complaints can range over almost any possible problem. Tenants love to complain to their landlord because they often feel like that's the reason they are paying the rent. You are there NOT just to provide a home for them, but ALSO to solve every single problem they encounter in their lives.

Noise complaints are generally at the top of the list. This is a common occurrence if you have multi-family dwellings, and ESPECIALLY if you have basement apartments. The last thing you want to do is end up losing a tenant because of noise complaints, or because you ended up in a screaming match with the alleged noise-maker.

Amanda is amazing at dealing with complaints from our tenants and here is an example of how she dealt with the problem.

Great video.

In our part, we have 'house rules' (eg., noise, regular overnight guests, maintenance of the unit, garbage, etc.) listed in the lease application to forewarn applicants of the 'do's and don'ts' (i.e., reasons for eviction or pre-termination of lease) right from the beginning. If they like the 'rules', they fill up the application form and we'll continue the pre-screening process. If not, they are free to walk away. It's another way of pre-screening applicants.

The same 'rules' are explain to approved tenants before signing the lease agreement to give them the opportunity to ask questions or withdraw the application.
