One potential tenant is a single mom of one child. 

Last year my husband and I had our 2 child.

I could understand maybe 3 people if it was 2 people and a child but any more than 3 people does not make any sense.

My current situation is as follows:Married, one child (3). 

Unemployment benefits (luckily some states are ending that), stimulus checks, CA is going to give everyone $600 + $500/child. 

I know many parents believe it to be socially/morally acceptable/responsible to pay for a child's college.

(Don't let that scare you though, I've had clients negotiate $20k off the selling price, and I only charged them $10k for the deleading, so it can actually work in your favor for it not to have been done yet.)By law, you also cannot rent to someone with a child under 6 unless you have a lead certificate on file with the state.

His daughter was the brain child to start this mess. 

You can speak to your lender about a 'change in circumstance' letter and see if underwriter will take it for the new loan considering you have a new child and cannot live in the space no longer.

It just seems like people are in a rush to get everywhere, so stressed, and not into the same way of life that I am, the weather is humid, and the cost of living is high.I have always taken the safe route in life, rarely taking chances and also foregoing experiences/vacations until last year.Ever since I was a child, I felt an attraction to the West, specifically Colorado.
