Why EBPM Recommends “Pet Negotiable”
1 GREATER POOL OF APPLICANTS
50% of East Bay renters own a small dog or cat. By saying “Pet Negotiable”, you are opening your home up to twice as many potential tenants. This means a more quality tenant and less vacancy.
2 3-5% MORE RENT
Imagine a home identical to yours for rent that is across the street. It is priced $100 less per month but does not accept a pet, however your home does. Which home is the excellent prospective tenant with a small pet going to choose? This can result in several thousand dollars in additional rent during a tenancy.
3 LONGER TENANCY
The average tenancy of renters with a small pet is 3 years, compared to 2 years for a renter with no pets. This means less vacancy and more profit for you.
4 EBPM Pet GUARANTEE
Should a pet placed by EBPM cause any damage that exceeds the security deposit, EBPM will pay for it up to $3000
