Other than a couple of remarks in astonishment and amusement about young people having sex in the cemetery behind the building ... the tenants never make mention of it.

We had to pack everything, since in Texas anything a tenant owns they can claim as being exempt from attachment, dumped all in boxes, took it to a "U Store It" place, paid the first two months rent in CASH, IN THE TENANT'S NAME, and mailed him a certified letter with instructions on where his stuff was.OK, you've made some mistakes that we all make.

For the background check, we don't want any felonies in the last 7 years and no sex offenders.

Based upon the information shared thus far (80/15/5 at 6.25% & 7.25% + 10K down), FHA wins hands down (97-100% @ 6.25 or better with no points/orgination fees is a real possibility with an AU approved FHA loan)[/i]I too wish you well in your endeavors; compare and save!

I have many clients from Perth... and have wrote an E book on TK investing from AU for AU investors specifically..

The Fair Housing act states that it is unlawful to refuse to rent to a person because of that person's race, color, religion, sex, handicap, familial status, or national origin so I think you should be good.

Good point Marcia as to occupant.An occupant is any party in occupancy or possession, may or may not be a tenant or lease named in any lease or rental agreement.As to limiting occupancy, this can get touchy as a tenant has rights of quiet enjoyment, the right of use and the definition of family may include unmarried or same sex members.

Oh god where do I start....You may have seen me on The First 48 following a murder In one unit of a building we have had 3 tenants die in 15 monthsVarious offers of sex for rent to maintenance staffThe Feds took over property we managed as owner turned Out to be a drug traffickerMore fires due o stove left on than I can countEmployee/ resident shot coming home late night from guy hiding in bushesTenant mad because apartment broken into and her cake she baked was stolen....not concerned about the rest of her stuff Countless tenant stole the kitchen and left water runningI could go on for days from stuff over the last 10 yearsI will challenge any pm to a trade off of great management stories.....property management nothing to it

Low to very-low incomes, most children in school receive free meals, high crime rate, and on top of that there are 104 registered sex offenders living in that zip code.

So you can't mention anything in your ads about race, color, national origin, sex, religion, disability, or familial status.
