Our recommendation is that you specify that the use of a criminal record must be the result of a conviction, and denial should be limited to specific crimes such as:Violent crimes, which would include any convictions with the use of firearms,Crimes of a sexual nature,Crimes against property or persons (such as arson and theft), and,Convictions of drug manufacturing or distribution.The new guidance does not go so far as to make criminals a protected class so you are still completely within your right to deny applicants that violate the criteria above.

The lender we've been using for this and the last GA property has been a pleasure to work with and they are very investor friendly with no odd overlays.   

Last week I had the greatest pleasure of replacing a toilet when I accidentally dropped and broke the original trying to install a new vinyl floor in the bathroom, but Its still WAAYYYYY cheaper than if I had hired someone else to do it.

Pleasure to meet you and welcome to BP.

I had the pleasure of meeting Rick Villani and Clay Davis in 2007.

For an 800.00 a month unit, three months empty winds up with a 25% loss of rent for the year or the equivalent of accepting a monthly rent of 600, and once the taxes, insurance, and maintenance are added to the equation, a loss for the year is pretty much guaranteed, oh the pleasure of dealing with tenants and having to kick in cash for the year !

My experience has been that if you really want to help these people and you're not just there to exploit their situation, that intention comes through and it really can be a pleasureable experience.

It would be a pleasure catching up over coffee and sharing my experience of Toledo.I see that you are in Columbus.

@Ken Stoltzfus Pleasure to connect, do we know one another?

We invest in order to collaborate, in order to share the pleasure in the intangible, unintelligible logic, the ecstasy of life.
