Great tenants can be hard to come by. While every renter is likely to complain at some point and everyone occasionally makes a mistake, some tenants are far better than others are. One of the marks of a good tenant is that they are a generally well organized person. Another sign that you are dealing with someone worth renting your property to is that they are calm and quiet. While this can indicate a maniac, it can also indicate a solid person who keeps to themselves.
A great tenant tends to be a secure person, and most judge their security based on external factors. For this type of individual, making sure their living space is in good condition and that the lawn is mowed is an important part of being secure and having their ducks in a row. While this might not be the ideal for self-actualizing one’s dreams, it is a good way to ensure they will take care of your property and pay their rent on time on a consistent basis.
Tenants of that nature are good to have, and you should treat them well. However, another trend beyond merely being secure that you should seek in your tenants is for them to be quiet and calm. While there is nothing intrinsically wrong with being the type of person who is a little hyper, people like that tend to be less stable than more laid back types. While a laid back person may just sit around all day, a more hyper person has a higher likelihood of breaking walls in a random fit or doing other randomly destructive things.
