People are afraid of not having money so they go and get stuck in the "rat race".

Young/old people are just as much a protected class as anyone of race, sexual preference etc.

However, my mind is racing with the possibilities covered regarding all the different revenue streams!

I have a one page cover sheet I add to each application with check boxes to show that they have the "deal breaker criteria", a section to score the "nice to have" criteria, and a section to briefly explain my acceptance or rejection.Our Criteria: Complete applicationVerifiable rental historySufficient income/resources to pay rent and liveCredit report showing prior addresses consistent with application 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:convicted of manufacturing or selling drugsconvicted of a crime the poses a threat to the property or neighborhood, including repeated disturbances, gambling, prostitution, violence, threats of violence, or rapewhere there is poor prior tenancy: evictions, violations, damage to rental property, poorly handled move outs, amounts are still owing to landlords or utilities.who misrepresent information on the rental application

@Curt SmithThank you for the comment, I understand eliminating the tenant paying for repairs and any type of so called service to the seller.I am meeting with 3 real estate attorneys over the next week and am waiting for a couple others to return calls.My goal is not to break any laws but merely get a deal so I can get out of the rat race and start building my empire.

I am 27 currently working in IT full time and just like most,  if not all of you Im looking to exit the "Rat Race" by making real estate investing my full time job.  

For emotional support pets, a letter from a physician can be required - but these are available for online purchase for $99.Bottom line:  If a tenant claims to have a disability requiring a service animal (considered only to be dogs, or small ponies/horses per ADA), you have no choice to allow the animal and you may not charge additional rent or deposit. 

And even a mini horse. yes. a mini horse.

My heart was pretty much racing with my thoughts the entire morning.

Typically the businesses that pay the most for the corner are a pharmacy ( CVS, Walgreens, Rite Aid ), gas stations ( Race Trac, Quick Trip ) , banks ( nationals pay a premium for a great location ), restaurants  sometimes will want the corner but often they do not want to pay corner money and want to be down just a few spots and then get off traffic with easements from the corner property and a center behind them etc.
