Finally, as a last consideration be sure to check your state's sexual offender database to make sure there are no sex offenders living in close proximity as this would kill your ability to resell at a good price.

Our stated criteria (we are intentionally vague since we don't charge screening fees, we prefer a wider applicant pool to choose from):Our Criteria:We do not deny housing for race, color, religion, sex, national origin, handicap, sexual orientation, marital status, or familial status.We do deny housing to individuals: when the application is not complete or accurate where there is not sufficient income/resources to pay rent and live (2x rent)where there is poor prior tenancy: evictions, violations, damage to rental property, poorly handled move outs, amounts are still owing to landlords or utilities.

The rest is based on our point system.Our Criteria:We do not deny housing for race, color, religion, sex, national origin, handicap, sexual orientation, marital status, or familial status.We do deny housing to individuals: when the application is not complete or accurate where there is not sufficient income/resources to pay rent and livewhere there is poor prior tenancy: evictions, violations, damage to rental property, poorly handled move outs, amounts are still owing to landlords or utilities.Criminal activity is at our discretion depending on severity, number of convictions, and how long ago.

These units have been vacant now for 2 months and I'm out of ideas on how to market the units to people who will move forward.All four units are 1 bed/1 bath units and I have the following criteria:Fees:$300 security deposit, $50 application fee per adult (18Y+).Criteria as follows:no evictions in the last three (3) years; felonies on a case by case; no sexual offenses; income 2.5 times the rent.Any thoughts or tips would be very helpful!

However, fair housing laws as interpreted by the California courts make the process a little more complicated.Fair Housing FoulThe Unruh Civil Rights Act and the California Fair Employment and Housing Act prevent landlords from discriminating between would-be tenants on the grounds of their sex, race, color, religion, sexual orientation, marital status, ancestry, national origin, source of income, disability or medical condition.

Borderline sexual harassment of your sister if you consider the casual calls he makes to her in all honesty.

I'm not saying I would do that here, but if I was accused of discrimination, I would play that card....Sexual orientation being a protected class depends on the state:http://apartments.about.com/od/protectedclassesfaq/f/sexorientation.htm
