All seems perfect - until Ziprent gets sued for a Fair Housing violation caused by an owner interviewing a prospective tenant.

I have a nice hi-rise condo unit and I get tons of companies asking if I do MTRs for Visiting Nurses, Tech Professionals, etc.My place is positioned near a number of large DC Metro Hospitals, but since covid work-from-home and recent lift of Eviction Moritorium, I have had few people with jobs, but a ton of people recently evicted looking to rent my place.The one viable group - visiting nurses has been excluded because my HOA will not allow short or mid-term rentals (anything less than one year is a No-No).They claim too many transient tenants cause excessive wear and tear on the property and too many people using resources like the gym, or pool or common areas.I think that's a lot of horse waste!

One thing that OOS people don't understand is that Californians have Proposition 13 and our property taxes to up a maximum of 2% a year (unless someone does a significant renovation causing the property value to be reassessed).

I do work remotely from the home and was also wondering if I could write off the portion of where I use the space as a office on the same home as he’s claiming without causing any flags on the property address.

So basically I'm at risk of the tenant damaging my property and not having a way of going after her because she is not signed to the lease. 

When a tenant leaves owing $2,000 in damages, reporting them to a credit reporting agency may pressure them into paying you to protect their credit.

I’m not familiar with what would cause QBO to lock and account.

You want to go easy on the tenant with gradual increases, but they will still see it otherwise and you are still likely to cause animosity between yourself and the tenant.3.

For example, California has a TDS and SPQ, basically tells the buyer exactly what is going on with the house, and the seller needs to disclose or the buyer can come after them for damages.. 

The non-permitted unit is causing some troubles in getting this deal to move forward.
