I dimly remember someone telling me to get bent because I explained a similar situation and recommended that he find his next landlord through a refugee resettlement organization, because that would be one good way to make sure he would be working with someone who would understand his wife's immigration situation (and perhaps wasn't as deeply prejudiced against housing immigrants as all to many LLs are).I work with refugee resettlement organizations, I married an immigrant, I am a dual citizen and an American Born Abroad myself.

Just another day without new Immigrants. https://demographics.texas.gov...

Milwaukee had two major building booms that have created most of the housing stock: the immigration boom in the 1920s and the post WWII boom in the 1960s.Houses built in the 1920 have had dug basements that are less deep in the ground, no original sump crock/pump and often brick walls.

I'm guessing he did make money on those, and he was savvy immigrant, but you could see the pain on his face when he talked about those.Many of those also have plenty of deferred maintenance when you're thinking about exteriors. 

If you are in NYC you might try Abacus Bank - they are more small business oriented and understand immigrant issues - not saying you are but you may have bought in an area that is mostly immigrants - these usually are growth areas.

They approved health insurance for all immigrants, which leads to higher taxes.You should use the rental calculator and adjust the numbers to understand on how the deal could make sense.

@Ike Patel You say brace for impact I'll say bring it on.The net immigration that you mentioned only be felt in an apartment where there's a dip of rent from $2800 to $2550 per unit, but this is only temporary.

@Virginia JonesYou could have an illegal immigrant or a person wanted for crimes?

Short supply, high demand, heavy immigration are driving prices higher.

@Jessica Kirkpatrick we rent to a lot of immigrants coming to the US to work, and are in a similar position as you, nothing will come back for a credit/background check.
