Thanks @Matt M. I'll give them a call.

Hi all,

Looking for Real Estate attorney referrals in the greater Denver area. Let me know who you like!

Thanks!

 Thanks Theresa. The party in question is already on the existing lease that is expiring and went through our application process. 

We don’t want to renew him again as we think it’s too many people in one unit and suspect he’s smoking.

So at the end of the day this would be a matter of me saying “I’ll renew a lease with you two and your kids but not the extra adult with no relation” and I’m trying to make sure I’m not somehow violating some sort of tenant/discrimination law :)

Thanks!

Thanks all for the response so far. 

My main concern is the guy I make leave coming back and saying I discriminated against him in some way. I don’t see how that’s even possible in this case but figured I’d get everyone’s input!

Hey all,

We have a family that moved into our property last year and at the last moment before move-in they asked to add their adult friend on the lease. At the time we agreed but now we’d prefer it just be the family there for less wear and tear and we suspect the friend is a smoker.

Just wondering if anybody thinks we’d be at risk of discriminating if we told the family we are only going to renew with them if their adult friend moves out?

Thanks!

Travis, wouldn't your property sitting vacant for 6 months make you a little worried? Thought of that worries me a bit.

Thanks all. I basically had the same thoughts as most of the opinions expressed here. Mainly they could have just renewed and then just left so I appreciate them being honest with me. Plus, I'm not in the business of making any tenant find temp housing for a few months, especially not our military.

I hadn't thought about asking if I could do showings earlier than normal or an inspection before allowing a month to month lease so big thanks on both those ideas!

Hi all,

I have a tenant being deployed a few months after their lease ends June. They would like to go month to month until they are deployed. My issue is it's a SFH rental and the lease ends in the summer when the rental market is hot.

Looking for input on what you all would do?

TIA

Thanks for the recs everyone.  

@Jeff F. - Yeah I'm not sure I can do better either, but this is pretty high compared to my other property in CO. I was having trouble just finding companies who would do business in WY.

I'm from Cheyenne originally, and the hail is no more frequent than the front range of CO with cheaper costs to replace, so I don't buy that excuse from the companies there. I think there is something with insurance in WY and legislation, because a lot of businesses won't even do business in WY for some reason. Maybe it is the hail :)

Hi all,

As my title states, I'm looking for recommendations of insurance companies that can write a policy for LLC (commercial) for a Wyoming property. Currently using Farmers insurance and it seems pretty expensive at $2600 a year for a 4-plex.

Thanks!
