Unplugged said:Actually Mermaid, I have no special technique just good old common sense. However, I certainly am fascinated at the number of owners who post stories of guests who do damage their properties...
Call it luck, but I have not had that experience, and am grateful that we've not had any major damage or vandalism. Of couse, there's always a first time I suppose.
In that case, I think you have been amazingly lucky. I have a friend who suffered with no bad renters, had many repeats that she treasured, and screened very thoroughly. And two weeks ago, bam! a bad apple popped up. It only ever takes one, no matter how many years you're in the game. So count your blessings.
