I started self managing my IP in August last year and had AAA grade tenants who are moving to Sydney - looking for a property to rent in Penrith if someone wants them. 2 cats and did I mention - best tenants ever.
New maybes are 21 year old male and his 2 sisters who are 16 and 17 (years 12 and 11 at school). Italian heritage and I think not party kids. 21 yo has been a spray painter since apprenticeship when 15 yrs old. 17 yr old has part job as a personal trainer and wants to do that full time. 16 year old did experience as a travel agent and was offered a job but wants to stay at school.
Dad has money but they haven't seen him in 5 years. Mum just moved 3 hours east with boyfriend. Currently these 3 are living in a house on uncles farm but he drops in whenever he likes and asks heaps of questions and gives them no privacy so they lock their doors at night.
Mum would pay half the rent and 21 yo says he used to not relying on parents for anything. They have been living at uncles for 2 years.
They can afford the rent and my gut says they are quiet people. Would be living in Armadale and 10 minutes from the girls school.
I'm thinking of a 3 month contract as a test. It's high rent for the area and they could get cheaper elsewhere. No other takers. I could drop the rent and keep looking. They have answered my questions and filled out the paperwork in a timely and eager manner.
Would you consider them?
