You have to save all of your rental income to build up an emergency fund.For me I have a one-page application and we check credit and criminal record.

I also have updated my application with a section where they can address variances to my "typical qualifications," where they can explain things like an old criminal background record (still states absolutely no evictions) or a divorce that wrecked their credit score. 

This individual not only disrupted the peace of my other tenants but also engaged in criminal activities, including domestic violence and terrorizing children in the building.

We screen heavy and our tenants usually make great income, no criminal history’s, and are great tenants.

However, I did notice that their criminal reports occasionally miss information.  

I also used to ask more about criminal history, before that became protected.

These are not sophisticated scams executed by criminal masterminds.

That said, I know a few MHP operators that make some pretty tremendous money on the trailers, mostly by renting to people who need to pay in cash and have someone not ask a lot of questions - illegal/undocumented immigrants, transients, probably some criminals for sure, sometimes people (mostly women) hiding from domestic abusers, etc.

David, please talk with a lawyer about this, there may be criminal, ie SEC violations, or at least civil claim you can bring.

When the public threw out the leftist politicians who were worried about criminals “rights” rather than victims rights and eased regulations on business, encouraged new construction rather than prohibiting it, the NYC turned around.
