Unknowingly renting to illegal immigrants ......

Just wondering if there could be any issues with unknowingly renting to illegal immigrants. As a landlord, are we responsible for inquiring as to their citizenship? Could we get into trouble legally if we don’t?

@Sean Tippens as long as they pay the rent and take care of your property, I don’t see any issues. They are, after all, believe it or not, “patriotic” or not, human beings just like anyone else.

They need a place to live, a place to raise their children. And trust me, they will probably take care of the place more than the “citizens” of this county.
