February we started with the eviction process since she didn't move nor pay febs rent. fast forward to end of march.my in-laws came back from Florida and they were staying with us. there was an issue with the some rotten food of hers in the fridge that was thrown out and she decided it would be OK to start thrashing the place throwing things and finally assaulting my mother in law. the cops was called and she got charged with elderly abuse and spent 2 nights in jail.my mother in law was able to get a restraining order against her for a year and she is not allowed into the house because that is where my mother inlaw is staying. her belongings are still there.we went to court this past Tuesday for the eviction and the judge was not there. while speaking with the mediator, she is alleging that she cant find a place and wants 60 days in order to find something. my lawyer said "what makes you think you can live there when, you never paid, you assaulted someone living there and you still have not found a place to live?'

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?
