For example, I mention that every adult must pay a $30 application fee, pass my credit/criminal background, make a combined income of 3x the rent, and whether or not the property accepts pets.

Criminal past and eviction history are key, but number 1 for me is looking someone in they eye and making a decision with all of the reports on my tool belt!

Think of it this way: if we were to screen tenants on criminal background, credit, eviction history, landlord references, and income (3X that of rent and employee verified), even with 25 tenant applications, it's difficult to find a reliable tenant to match all those criteria.

The only power any government has is the power to crack down on criminals.

When should landlords waive background checks to support Undocumented Immigrants as I am unaware of services that will produce say a criminal background check outside of the United States?

However to compete with institutional or notes from banks etc.. again no offense but I think you have zero chance of success doing that..

Sometimes a pestering police presence can be a deterrent.If the suspicious individuals are engaged in criminal activity, calling the police while it's happening helps too.

Starting at 43% is close to criminal / fraudulent and not something any experienced investor would ever show.

Title company went for criminal charges not sure what the out come was .. but this stuff has been going on for 100 years.

@Jerome Morelosno offense but... this doesn't make a lot of sense to meHELOC rates are high so for this to work you'll have to give them a great return to make this work for them...way too complicated for my taste
