Allowing pets can significantly increase demand and rental income in Fort Myers, but it must be managed carefully. I help landlords choose a pet policy that balances higher rent opportunities with property protection. This may include pet screening, pet rent, breed restrictions, and increased deposits. Many of my landlords who allow pets enjoy reduced vacancy and stronger tenant retention.
