Beaver County Rental Home

Hi All! We now have our rental home for rent. If you know anyone in beaver county that is looking for a home. It's in a nice older neighborhood. I'll post more info here momentarily. The home is very close to I376 and in the middle of three great towns (Chippewa Township, Beaver, Beaver Falls) and very close to a lot of things but far enough away so you don't feel like you're in a city. Here's a link to some more details: http://houserentalbeaverfalls.blogspot.com/

Which site do I use to help me rent my rental home?

www.rentalhouses.com  is a great resource for any of you out there who need a quick and easy place to go to rent or find rental homes.
Using it, I have had great success in finding quality renters.
Finding them is only half of the battle though.

Make sure you update the photos and make sure your asking price is within reason compared to the competition.

RentalHouses.com (gold membership is what I do) is well worth the cost and it plasters your information everywhere.  If it's anything like last time, I'll have a surplus of interested renters even after I have rented the home.

One thing I highly recommend when renting a home too is to join ezlandlordforms.com and utilize their credit check/background check service.   I am very diligent when it comes to prospective tenants and this valuable service has helped me keep my rental home nice and my pocketbook secure.  I have not had any problems (knock on wood) with using this method.

Charging the potential renter upfront for the background check will also deter people who already know they have shady rental or credit history.  I charge it upfront and offer it as a deduction on their first month rent if they are approved.

If you all are thinking of renting out your old home and want some more advice, I'll be glad to share.  We have been really blessed in making the decision to keep our old home and rent it.

We have actually talked about renting our Ryan Home too and building out a new home somewhere else.  Actually, building a Ryan Home Venice in a different state and moving all of our stuff to the exact same spot.

The only reason we talk of moving is because we both like a little adventure and we are turned off by the fracking that seems to be taking over all over PA.

I'm curious if anyone else out there has had fracking pop up and disturb their sleep.  It hasn't happened in a while now but when it does happen, you notice.

I'm not a fan of allowing fracking sites right next to residential areas. My main issue is the loss of sleep and the lack of information that they supply the affected residents.

What are your thoughts?
