What I really look for in a agent is can they confirm or deny my ARV and rent estimate and explain why.

If they fill out the application and the first thing you see is that they have 17 pets, you can immediately deny them without wasting time checking landlord references, running a credit/criminal background, etc.

If they deny me to enter, I deny them

Its like eminent domain but initiated by the owner because they will claim an "unlawful taking" of property by denying all uses for it. 4.

Fast-forward to the divorce (messy, bad, abuse, etc.)

Research the appropriate laws for your property and follow best practices to avoid any discrimination accusations: use the same criteria for everyone who applies, know what the protected classes are, which questions are legal to ask and which aren't, and only deny applicants for legal reasons etc.

We have late fees, pet fees (though less these days with the whole service animal abuse), parking fees in some cases, storage unit feeds, coin laundry revenue etc... it can add up.Good luck.

For example FHA guidelines say you can deny an ESA if they cause an undue financial burden, cause a direct threat to the health and safety of others (the letter from the neighbor supports this), or cause substantial physical damage to the property.

With both land trusts, we were denied bank accounts at almost every bank we tried, Seacoast Bank being the only one who'd touch it. 

The rep became extremely rude and verbally abusive on a phone call with myself and my agent..
