This is how I became sucessful as a landlord

I bought my first rental property back in 1992. I had not a clue what I was doing. I came across a very nice young couple that wanted to lease my rental house they seemed like a very good risk very clean, good jobs so I decided not to do a background screening on them, why waste the money they seemed so nice. The leased my property for 2 years never had any major problems until 1 day the police came and arrested him for murdering his probation officer. No I had not run a police check because they seemed like such a nice young couple. Little did I know this person had murdered someone and had he murdered someone in the neighborhood of my rental property I could have been held liable for not doing a proper police check.
