// 6 Key Lessons

Use the SOLID method: Systematic, Objective, Lawful, Interested, Discerning.

Write your rules before anyone applies: Clear, consistent criteria = fewer legal headaches.

Pre-screen before the tour: Save time—talk first, show later.

Ask curious questions: What people say between the lines tells you everything.

Screen in order received: Avoid discrimination claims by keeping it first-come, first-qualified.

Refine after every tenant: Each bad fit improves your process—if you let it.
