When a user purchases cryptocurrency at a given price and then later trades it away — whether by buying a coffee or by selling it on an exchange — the sale is subject to capital gains tax because it is considered property.Failing to report the transaction to the IRS could expose the user to criminal and financial penalties."

At least that’s how it’s always been handled in eviction court to my recollection.This, moving someone else in who wasn’t on the application, shortly after starting the lease, is one of those things that tenants do which (as far as I know) is legal but incredibly frustrating and not a good sign for the future relationship with the tenant since it either means there was a reason they didn’t list that person (e.g. a criminal record or bad credit) or just that they’re already starting out “in bad faith” by hiding something from you.At the very least, if you can get the new resident’s name I would recommend doing a criminal check on them since I think you do have a duty to protect the other tenants in your building by at least doing a simple check of any new occupants.

As a white kid from the suburbs, I realize that I will be in very unfamiliar turf as I begin my career as a landlord.So, other than buying a gun that I carry at all times, never going to the properties at night, and screening tenants beforehand to make sure they don't have serious criminal records, what else can I do to ensure that I stay safe while managing these types of properties in bad neighborhoods?

The housing authority does criminal, credit, and background checks annually on their participants.

However I was forced to sign a release stating that I would not perform the criminal credit background checks.
