[@nurseamer-tenyearmoneychal4722]

Thank you! That’s awesome you’re building ADU to rent to travel nurses! We definitely need more housing.

This video was extremely helpful! Would you mind sharing your rental application? I am also in SoCal and trying to find the best one to use that nurses can complete online.

Great tips especially the one about playing detective to make sure the landlord provided is real. Thank you much you for sharing your experience. Please make more videos on the RE investment topics like this one. 👍👍👍

[@stephrgordon]

Oh gosh how nerve wracking- def will rewatch this when I buy my first rental property. Good tips, more work to screen than I realized

[@nurseamer-tenyearmoneychal4722]

Yes, definitely a lot of work to screen the bad/good tenants, but better to do that much work than give your keys to the bad tenants! Thanks so much for watching!

[@ieshaburke2399]

[@user-ti7ch9yk3c]

Great information. Please could you share more about the following: What kind of form do you use to request the tenant information and also the authorization for background check or screening? How long takes to receive back that information? Do you use the lease contract or another form for the background check?

[@Anselma4]

good info

[@h2oyah]

Man. That tenant sounds annoying! I'm glad that person is out of your life. Keep going!

[@nurseamer-tenyearmoneychal4722]

Yes, I can breathe again!

[@lisap1776]

We are just beginning in this process, to rent to travelling nurses. I am impressed by your attention to detail in your presentation here and it will help a lot when we are ready to rent! I really like your insight about walking to their car with them, great idea and I am sorry that you had a bad experience and hope you are fully healed from it! Thank you, Amer!

Hi nurse Amer thank you for the steps you laid out for us! Which of these steps did you skip that led to the bad tenant situation?

[@nurseamer-tenyearmoneychal4722]

I didn’t do background check!

[@pattyhernandez7238]

Hi Amar congratulations on your goals. You are doing great and definitely on your way there. Thank you for sharing such great helpful i formation. Do you have any I formation on renting by room? Do you do that?

Thank you Patty! Yes, I rent per room. Might do a separate video about renting per room!

[@ianmasterbarber2391]

Do your cover the utility bills? How do you monitor so that a person doesn’t crank it on 85/90 degrees?

[@serahloeffelroberts9901]

My husband owned an apartment building in San Francisco. I have heard enough horror stories about his tenants to write a book. Unfortunately he inherited the bsd tenants with the building so did not have a chance to screen them. As it was he got no help from the government. Luckily he managed to sell the building and unloaded the nightmare.😊

[@ginz4924]

Hi Amer, thank you for sharing this video! This is very useful. I am currently thinking about to renting to traveling nurses too. My question is what type of background check do you do? I feel many of them would walk away if I ask them to do a background check. Is it okay to get a copy of their traveling nurse contract to verify their employment? One potential renter got really angry after we requested for it. It would be great if you could share your experience and tips with me. I really appreciate it. Thanks!

[@thezoobaboyz1645]

I think that would be a red flag for me if a potential renter got angry about providing information!

[@nurseamer-tenyearmoneychal4722]

Hi Gin, I use keycheck.com for background check, that includes credit score, criminal background, any late fees you’ve had in the past. I would for sure ask for travel nursing contract. It is a red flag when if they don’t want to provide that information.

[@crystaluncharted8366]

[@kendramcburnie3018]

Thank you for this insight on renting to healthcare professionals. May I ask that you please speak up in your next video as my volume is all the way up in a quiet environment and I can barely hear you.

[@daniellep2544]

I’m really hoping you see this but would furnished finder work if you’re temporarily moving to a new state? I am a Registered Nurse and am doing insurance assessments but am hoping to also find a temporary per diem hospital position or sign a travel contract. Would you as a landlord consider me? I’m trying to get a feel for my chances with Furnished Finder! Just found you on TH-cam and your video on Furnished Finder is very informative.

[@nurseamer-tenyearmoneychal4722]

Hi thanks so much for watching. I tend to rent out to travel nurses who already have an assignment contracted to a hospital. Doesn’t matter which state they’re from.

[@daniellep2544]

Thank you!

[@dgalansilk]

How do you deal with the utilities? Do you factor that into your rental pricing?

[@nurseamer-tenyearmoneychal4722]

Yes, I factor in utilities in the total rent price :)

[@PM-bh9bj]

Who do you use for the background checks? Also how do you collect the rent? They send it directly to your bank via you giving them a deposit check?

[@minyihe9802]

Hi Amer, thanks for posting your experience on TH-cam. We just list my house at FF and we had many peoples requests for my property. We find ourselves to difficult to deal with then. We live at Marin County at California. And would like to talk with you some experience that we might not know. Is possible to contact you by phone? Thanks

[@palace927]

How did you end up with a nightmare tenant when you are so careful with the screening process? Was it someone that you found on Furnished Finder?

[@jamesn8750]

Saw your experience with furnished finder and I was curious if you got so many inquiries by nurses because of location or amenities?

[@nurseamer-tenyearmoneychal4722]

Yes, location is important, typically we nurses don’t want to drive more than 30 mins from our job site.

Salamat sa channel.. nag start pa lang kami, meron bang market sa single occupant sa property entire house? May example kaba ng minimum requirements

[@nurseamer-tenyearmoneychal4722]

Hindi common one person for one whole entire house. Pero some nurses travel with partner/children so they might need the entire house.

[@LolaC79]

How much do you charge for security deposit? Can you request only female tenants?

[@hrysoulam]

How are you protected from tenants that now secured with a lease may decide to take over the apartment and stay without paying? We suffered from non-paying tenants for 2 years due to Covid who rampaged our house, complained to housing daily with bogus claims and we finally had to pay them to leave to regain our sanity. If someone can reply on how they are guaranteed to leave upon lease expiration???

[@nurseamer-tenyearmoneychal4722]

I’m so sorry to hear about your experience. Unfortunately there are always risks. Nothing is guaranteed. The best we can do is screen each one really good.

[@izi.z2384]

Hi Amer, just wondering was the nightmare tenant a travel nurse or was it a family or a single individual? And are you primarily renting to only travel nurses currently now or casting a wider net to all persons who pass your requirements?

[@nurseamer-tenyearmoneychal4722]

It is from a single individual that is not on any travel assignment.

Hi Sherrie, in this case you won’t be able to see their car if it’s from FaceTime/zoom call. When they arrive in person, that’s when you can check.

[@myssscarlet539]

Hi, I don't have a separate entry way. How is this handled? Do you give the Tenant a copy of, your house key or get a combination lock? Thanks for responding.

[@nurseamer-tenyearmoneychal4722]

It really depends on the setting of your place but I found it useful to have quickset smart key, that way, you can constantly change the key after contracts over without changing door knobs.

[@cori351]

Hi Amer,
We have just listed on our first property on Furnished Finder and have some inquiries. Any tips on how prospective renters send you a copy of their driver's license, employment contract, etc. securely? I would be hesitant to send this information through regular email if I were applying to rent.

[@nurseamer-tenyearmoneychal4722]

Maybe take a pic of their drivers license when they arrive? And for contracts, I still had them email to me, blocking the price/salary. Good luck with your adventure!

[@auroracornejo4859]

There are lots of companies online you can choose to check their credit. I used keycheck.

I look on furnished finder website as if I’m the travel nurse looking for a place and see how much rents are going for around the area that are similar and set a competitive price.

So do you get your tenants from other company aside from FurnishedFinder.

[@collegestudent1980]

Cracks me up on how people want to dog "tenants". Landlords are bad as well. Myself and Another tenant did the right thing paid our rent on time was very mislead and the couple knew we would not leave because we were states away. Like over 1500 miles away. I've contacted Furnish Finders and that's pointless. I asked Furnish finders if tenants can leave reviews about landlords and apparently a the only thing that a tenant can do is ask a landlord for a reference. What kind of crock of shit it that. So my next step is going to the BBB over Furnish finders for not screening these landlords alot better.
"Be very careful as a renter when using Furnish finders! I have found personally that landlords have been misleading people to scam them and get it money. There is no legitimate way to get your deposit or prorated difference of money back unless you have the time or money to go to that local town or states and small claims court. Myself and another nurse both of us each rented a room from a couple and we gave a notice and still have not gotten any of our money back.
I've contacted Furnish finders and that was pretty much useless. I feel that when dealing with the landlords on that site rent should be paid into a third party account and released to the individuals. We pretty much got scammed, If you are a traveler be very cautious when using Furnish finders to find housing; you will be better and safer to use a hotel or reserve an RV or Camper if you can afford it.
