It’s only been 2 months.I can’t figure out what is motivating the guy to behave in this manner.He’s started avoiding me (which is fine, because I’m anti-confrontational and I'm quite angry right now), but I think we probably need to sit down and have a chat to get this to stop.The property code inspector actually recommended that I seek out a mediator to help deal with the guy because he's been repeatedly calling him about the violations.Would you cut bait and run?

If you can make a legal argument for why you are denying someone with a companion animal, showing you didn't intend to blatantly just discriminate against them because they had one, then I really don't see any huge thing to worry about.I know this because I had a legitimate discrimination case in California, which probably has the most stringent anti-discrimination housing laws in the country - and it was a joke.  

-linoleum = naturally anti-bacterial(no it is not a sheet of vinyl): @Roy N. can you help me with that?

May I also suggest, depending on where the mold is building up, to replace product with anti mold product.

Do you know who also has to follow anti-discrimination laws? 

Over the next 20 years, the Southeast is going to see the most growth...CA, IL will implode on themselves, the Pacific NW is OK but expensive and buy and holds don't work unless you are talking multi family... the Northeast will continue to lose major employers due to their anti-business policies which will cause a further exodus of the population, the Midwest hasn't had anything going on for 20 years and will continue that trend over the next 20... so what does that leave? 

It blows my mind how anti-business our government can be. 

Mike MoRo,a 3 day pay or quit notice is the wrong notice to send unless you want her to stay.You want an attorney to post a get out in 60 day notice immediately so you can get her out before September.This should have been done the very first day you bought the property so she would have been gone before August.Call a number of attorneys who specialize in evictions and you will find one who will get it done for $800.00,not $20,000.Don't try this without an attorney for the first time because something will go wrong and the court will side with her.Remember,California is the biggest anti-landlord/pro tenant state in America and the courts will bend over backwards to help tenants stay in the property rent free for even the slightest mistake committed by you.

Even in CA, which has probably the most strict housing anti-discrimination laws, you can't find a lawyer to take your case on contingency - if it's a housing discrimination complaint.There are a lot of lawyers and other RE professionals who make good money with seminars about the fair housing laws.  

This is one of those weird, twisted anti-gun nut statistics.
