Can a landlord deny emotional support animal (Not a service animal)? I know alot of people who get treated for depression or some sort of mental health issue and gets a letter from a licensed doctor or therapist that allows the patient to have an ESA. How would a landlord go about it if the landlord has a no pet policy and does not want this tenant with an ESA without discrimination or breaking laws?

A landlord was shot and killed on Friday by a tenant he was evicting in Salt Lake City.

When it comes to eviction..... when is it appropriate to get LEO involved? Everytime?

Learn how to build your credit first and understand how it works, and get a stable earned income history. Trust me even if your score is 800 but you don't have much lending history or a steady W2 with low DTI ratio then you won't even qualify for an auto loan much less a mortgage loan. Coming from someone who was is your shoes once and thought the same. I learned that your income, credit history NOT just the score you see on CK but actually length of credit history and DTI plays a big role in your lenders decision in approving you or not. Best of luck.

Thinking about using my VA Loan to purchase a triplex or even a quadplex. Does anyone have any experience with this before? Are there any restrictions or implications to renting out property using a VA Loan?

Spot on. This is a business. And you will inevitably have to deal with difficult or rude people. Nice doesn't pay your bills, but tenants who pay on time do.
