Student Rental House: 2 units - a family with kids wants one unit ...
22 April 2015 | 13 replies
Not that I am into that side of things as I have a property manager, however I have heard of others using it.legally, wouldnt 'play' with excuses to discriminate (ie, telling families their reference check didn't clear meanwhile 'preferring' studens for the unit or house) unless there was a bona-fide loophole to do so (ie, a statute allowing for an owner to Prefer Students for their Rental House because the owner is also a student living in the house). that's simply a risk i would not want to take unless i had a legit, legal reason for preferring students over any other family status for my rental house. labelling a rental property as 'Student Rental House' could have repercussions if not planned legally; ie back in college i stayed in 'Student Housing' but it was Off-Campus Housing OWNED by the university; i've never come across 'Student Housing' rentals unless it was a frat/sorority house or one owned or officially associated with local educational institutions. would love to see a loophole in your jurisdicton that allows for independent rental unit(s) to be dedicated to specifically students. ie, u could make a strong argument that for a 2 family house, the students in one unit might seem too noisy for a quiet, sensitive elderly coulple already living right below or smack next to them - or vice versa.good luck and by the way i do like the idea of what you are doing: at least considering mixed housing although yea there could be a conflict of interest and perhaps that could be your argument for preferring students since students might party often as compared to say, elderly families i guess?

Are my pre-screening questions a turn-off and/or unkind/impersonal?

.#5 should be more of a statement, something like 'Each Adult will pay a $25 application fee'I would guess that the woman either doesn't want to pay a fee, or she doesn't want to have to reveal some information that is sensitive to her.

Should I rent to a smoker?

And I can tell you that a non-smoker who is sensitive, who comes to view your unit will absolutely smell that smell, even if you have cleaned and painted.

Cabinets smell??
12 April 2015 | 10 replies
I really think the odor was from the previous occupant's animals (as it was problematic with the lower cabinets and not really the uppers)- and because we didn't have animals I was more sensitive to the smell.
