I recently immigrated to the US and currently living and working in San Diego, CA.

The fundamentals are there - good job market, good local economy, ever increasing immigration.

If everything looks good, send them a Lease.However, this potential tenant is here on a non immigrant student visa, so they do not have a social security number.

Hello fellow BPers,I am currently looking for a tax accountant to do my tax return for this year (and potentially for the next year and on).I don't have a property yet for 2019 tax return, but I am in kind of a complicated situation, and I'd like to connect with anyone who has experience filing tax returns for immigrants preferably. 

As they are basically discriminating me because of my immigration status?

I have an 18-unit in Cleveland.Pretty much stabilizing for this first year, getting rid of inherited deadbeat tenants etcI have gone to Cleveland twice since acquiring the asset in September 2017:once during initial due diligence and I just came back from walking all units again with my PM last week.Wouldn't have it another way.Much less involved in it compared to my local Jacksonville buildings as my PM as been awesome in communicating.Oh by the way,I read this recent article on BP condemning Cleveland and Memphis to the bottom of some list of "6 cities"...I have no idea why people make these sweeping generalizations based on some graphic or data.It's like a girl saying to herself:"most men cheats I'll never fall in love".It's easy to write an article or create a spreadsheet while drinking beer in your man cave.I just returned from a week of walking the streets of Cleveland taking in the billions of $ in new investment in the downtown area and east of the Flats where an unbelievable transformation has happened since I last lived there in 2011.Vacancies are down, rents are rising.Yet some guy who's never actually been to Cleveland sits somewhere in LA and writes articles about how net immigration in Cleveland is negative etc.Hilarious.

Landlords take advantage of illegal immigrants because they can't complain for fear of being reported.

The Fed has an uphill battle here. 10,000 Boomers are retiring every day and there are not enough immigrants and Gen Zers entering the workforce to replace them.

That is the goal and would be ideal but as of now (and for the upcoming few years) I cannot quit my current job since I have to maintain my immigration status.

I must note at this point that I was ultimately forced to put down a 25% deposit, due to being married to a non-SA citizen - the lender insisted on this due to some rather restrictive immigration laws in SA.
