 Thank you so much for all that information and adding onto Nate's reply. You guys are awesome and I know this will help me so much!

Quote from @Nathan Gesner:

Here's an example.

- Match their name and social to their application and their credit check.

- Pay date is the YY/MM/DD.

- ETS is when their current enlistment ends.

- Military members are usually paid twice a month, on the 1st and 15th. The "Deductions" column shows their first payment and the column on the right shows their second payment.

 Thank you so much for all that info!! I will try calling on Tue since tomorrow is a holiday. 

Hi. I will preface this by saying I know nothing about the military so I apologize in advance for this question. I also looked at the old posts and google and haven't had any success with this topic. 

I am having a hard time verifying military employment and pay. I have called multiple supervisors and they all have said they don't know the applicants pay. One even said they were a reservist, but the applicant is claiming they are active duty. How can I verify that they are active duty and getting the amount of pay they claim? Usually with civilians, we call the HR department and they give us that information. I have looked at the DFAS website, and haven't gotten very far because I do not have their SSN. RentRedi "stars" it out, so would it be appropriate to ask the applicant again for their SSN? Their LES (like any other civilian paystub) can be fabricated, so how do you know it is real? Also, how can you confirm that they are going to continue to be in the military for some time, and not going to get kicked out or discharged, or already has been? Same thing like how do you know if a civilian will keep their job? Through employment verification, which I can't seem to do with the military. Any details on how everyone verifies their military applicants would be great! Thank you in advance!

I am new to being a landlord, but more so my situation is complicated. I am trying to rent out a property where it's already zoned business and personal use:  someone can live upstairs in a 2 bed 2 bath, and run their business downstairs. I called EVERY insurance company (that I know of), and they all said if business is conducted on the property, they do not cover. I'm just so confused on how other people within the community are doing it. Does anyone have any recommendations on what type of insurance I am supposed to be looking for (just business insurance or is there a personal and business coverage per sq ft or something)? Any companies you would recommend for a property in Hawaii? Thank you in advance.
