It should be a Luxury to have your own bedroom, so IMO, for a 5 bedroom house you should not be cringing until a family size exceeds 10.

And think about it, even the mother with eight kids, that is only 2 children per bedroom and the mother having her own.  That sounds pretty practical to me!  I shared a bedroom with my sister my entire childhood and most places were rentals.

And, no my last comment did not address legality, just practicality and fairness. So, I understand I did not answer your question-sorry.

For the # of children, you are advertising a 5 bedroom house!  My mother had 6 sisters and 3 brothers and her mother and father and they all resided in 3 bedrooms. She and her 6 sisters spent a few years until the eldest moved out in one bedroom.  Since 5 bedrooms is about the max for affordable housing in any market, your house is going to attract large families.  If these large families cannot rent a 5 bedroom house, where else can they live?

And, for the felony, I would think you could reject.  What is the purpose of a background check if not to rule out the undesirable?

Thank you! @Michael S.

Do not know if it is legal, but when I was young I was kicked out of my HOA community for having a 2nd child when they only allowed max of 3 people in 2 bedroom, and when I had my 3rd child many apartments would not rent a 2 or 3'bedroom to a 5 person family.. Maybe times have changed, or maybe HOAs trump lival law, dont know, curious.

icon while not in a specific category and after you type your subject and comment, the select category block will not populate.  You have to end your post and then go into the category you want to post in, and start over.  Why?

How do I change last name on my profile?  With the Android app when I go to edit profile it does not allow me to change my name.  

Yes, the previous owner should provide you with copies of the leases.  I would consider hiring a property manager for out of state re tals, but that is just my opinion.
