Discrimination

Hi,

One of my apartments just became available and I placed an ad on craigslist. here is the link:

http://burlington.craigslist.org/apa/4227254855.html

The next day I got an email from someone saying my ad was discriminating. I asked why and he said I can't say "no prior evictions" and I can't ask how much someone makes, as it is none of my business, along with a couple of other things like that I can't run a credit check. My wife and I had a good laugh about the income part. Imagine if you couldn't qualify a tenant based on income. How would you screen someone, check their pulse? ok here's the keys... haha

Anyway, any constructive criticism about my ad would be greatly appreciated. Thank you!
