@Jacob Smith
I have a track history of renting to disabled, poor, and minorities. So there isn’t any discrimination over this way. However, I see the VALUE in your example, I just don’t want you getting a wrong image of me.
Anyways,
- Your advising to always select the FIRST most qualified? And that would help protect me from discrimination claims and such?
- What if I have 10 GOOD people apply though? On a long day of showings, I showed 10 and all 10 applied. Of course, the third party processes ONE at a time, but if the first one is QUALITY, it isn’t FAIR at all to just Throw the other 9 applicants OUT.
- first come first serve sometimes brings sketchy characters and unqualified characters to the home,
I hate when people call me an say “ can I hold the home! I’m the first to call, Let me pay today? “ those tenants are usually going to be nightmares to your household
- I moved a guy in, he offered to pay double the required security deposit, home wasn’t move in ready until 2 weeks from the day he begged to move in, but I allowed him to. Come to find out, he’s a felon, with a bad track record. He gets arrested 30 days later and sends terroristic threats to me and my family....
- I have had my life threatened so this tenant thing, yeah, I want to be very diligent and pick the MOST QUALIFIED
