So far the only applicants I’ve gotten on the hook for my unit were a younger couple who were very upfront that their credit was a little bit challenged.

My developer client successfully defended the initial challenges and settled on this having PE rights, so he shifted the site plan to avoid the issue.

There are quite a few solutions out there so that even the most tech challenged person can pay electronically.

Also would love answer to the following: - Are there any specific challenges or advantages you experienced compared to a JV structure?

these tenant friendly laws seldom matter because the vacancy is so low the tenants want to stay in their units and realize an eviction will make it challenging to ever find a quality rental in this market.

We embrace S8 applicants, but screen them just like any other applicant.Many have an entitlement mentality and try to leverage their S8 voucher by pretending to be helpless:1) A percentage won't apply because they expect a landlord to waive application fees for them.2) Many cry broke and expect a landlord NOT to charge them a security deposit.3) Many of those same S8 tenants trying to avoid paying a security deposit, won't make an effort to call the list of nonprofits we send them that will pay their security deposit if they apply.4) A lot of them try to avoid paying for utilities.
