What is the local by-law occupancy restriction (i.e. number of unrelated adults per abode - most university towns have one)?

Generally required information may include: Applicant on-time for showing appointment Positive Government Issued ID Fully completed application for every occupant 18 years and older Applicant(s) able to pay complete deposit and rent deposit at time of lease signing Proof of adequate income which could include any of the following: Most recent paycheck stub Tax return copies for self-employed applicants Copies of deposit slips, investment earnings documents or Social Security earnings for retired applicants Any additional sources of income, ie child or spousal support, trust fund incomeIncome, Credit and Employment information required may include: Proof of verifiable employment and / or verifiable source of income Adequate gross income to rent ratio (2.5 to 3 times income to rent) No excessive debt which may impact applicant(s) ability to pay rent Good credit history free of negative credit issues which may indicate an applicant is high-risk and / or indicates a patternof payment delinquencyCourt Records: History of criminal activity (arrests and / or convictions by any occupant, adult or minor) which could negatively affect tenancyRental history information required may include: If applicant has prior rental experience, good references from prior landlord(s) No prior evictions on applicant(s) recordState dependent:ADVERSE ACTION NOTICE REQUIRED WHEN DENYING OR OFFERING CONDITIONAL TENANCY TO APPLICANTNote: In the event an applicant is denied tenancy, or any other form of adverse action is taken against the applicant including requiring an additional deposit, a qualified guarantor, last month’s rent, or increased monthly rent, the landlord is required to provide an Adverse ActionNotice.

It's not a bad survey, but the answers are definitely geared for the general population rather than for people likely to be financial outperformers.For example, a young adult should move back home after college in order to save for a house.

I had no intention to offend and assumed that we were adults here.

Texas law currently only allows service of 3 day notice by:In Person or delivered to an adult in the houseTaped to the inside of the front doorCertified mailIf this seems out of the norm for your tenant who has been on time until now, I would give it another day and them make contact with specific arrangements to pay

They are adults and own the house now.

In my OPINION, it requires 4 walls, a door and a window and the capacity to fit an adult size bed.Without a window, I think it's a storage room.Without a door, I think it's a corridor or living area.

For longer leases, wait and see how they are before you offer a new lease, make sure to get an application from each adult and I pay the background check fee for existing tenants (anyone on the lease) as a gesture of good will- not their fault the building was sold.  

I just moved to the US last year and am a property virgin here.I looked at a foreclosure a couple of months ago and met a realtor there who got me to sign what I know now as an `exclusive buyers contract`, no excuse as i`m a reasonably intelligent adult but he said it was a `no obligation` form and just a matter of normal procedure here and that I could walk away at any time...fast forward a few days and an email copy of what i signed was sent to me...looks like i`m on the hook for 6 months!

It's yours, you want to be big adult landlords.
