Hi there,
I currently rent my home. My landlord tells me all the time that we are the ideal tennants.
Some ideas I ahve that make good landlords:
1. Do not pop in un announced.
2. Let them treat the place like their home. For example, if they want to paint a bedroom, then let them with the understanding that it will be re painted before they move.
3. If they want to have pets, let them. Again, charge extra or an extra security deposit with them.
4. Check references.
