When you imagine the perfect tenant, who comes to mind? A young professional couple? No pets, no kids, high income, long-term renters? That’s what most new landlords think. But they’re wrong.

In this episode, we reveal the surprising truth about who actually makes the best tenants – and how first-time landlords often get it backwards.

You’ll learn:

  • Why the tenant who looks worst on paper might be your best long-term renter

  • The crucial difference between “ideal buyer” and “ideal tenant”

  • Why high income doesn’t always mean low risk

  • What real property managers look for when picking the right person

  • How to challenge your assumptions (and avoid costly turnover)
