[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Best tenants are military families. Handy and trustworthy. Diplomats leave the country after a couple of years. They don’t care about their credit here. Can trash your place without much consequences.[/quote]

Military can leave w/o consequences if they're called for duty[/quote]

Maybe in terms of timing, but not condition. I grew up in a town with a military base, and military officers were the best tenants. The base had inspectors that would come check the house after move out to make sure it had been left in pristine condition. Literally the “white glove” test. I don’t know if they do that anymore, but there would be repercussions for a member of the military who trashed a house. The base has an interest in maintaining access to rental properties in the area, and they want a reputation for being good tenants. [/quote]

I agree with you. They are nice people and leave the place spotless. But sometimes they just have to pack up and go if duty calls and I don't begrudge them for that.  But it's a huge pain when I'm living halfway around the world to try and find a tennant asap. Even with a property manager it's a hassle[/quote]
