Post: Property Management Detroit

Does anyone have a recommendation for a property manager in the Detroit suburbs (Shelby, Chesterfield, Waterford and Garden City) for several 18000-30000 sq foot strip malls, office complexes and a 12 unit apartment building? I'd like to find a Company that is large enough to accomodate the needs of additional buildings, well staffed, well organized and able to take on both rent collection, day to day operations, accounting and larger build-outs or cap-ex needs.  Thanks for your help

I appreciate all the input. This issue is really less about the status as a “family with children” and more about the number of occupants. More people generally cause more wear and tear, more noise and use more utilities. I was wondering if one applicant can be chosen over another only because there are fewer people, regardless of any other “discriminatory” factors. 

In short, if the woman is chosen over the family, and the family cries discrimination, can one defend oneself on the basis that fewer tenants per unit is preferred.

Hi everyone.  I have a question that I was hoping the BP community could help with regarding fair housing.  If I have two applications that potential tenants have submitted to lease a space, and the only difference is the number of people that will be residing there, is this considered discrimination?  For our purposes, assume that everything else (income, rental history, etc.) is equal.  An example would be a single woman vs a family of 3.  Any input would be appreciated.
