Would your parents be interested in partnering on a duplex where you live in one side with a roommate and manage the other side rental? 

As first-time landlords, we considered self-management, but as new parents who work full-time, we decided that hiring a property manager would be the best option for long-term rentals.3.

Thankfully I am currently breaking even on the mortgage with both units rented and we just moved into my girlfriend's parents’ lake house rent free.

I dont care if the tenant is paying themselves, the government, the tenants parents, etc.

Almost nobody that wants a 3-bedroom has only one car, except the occasional single parent with small children, or solo professional that wants a home office and guest bedroom.

Like @Derek Brickley said, you would need to get someone who does have a W2 (maybe your parents?)

Require co-signers (like their parents), check references from previous landlords or college housing, verify enrollment status, and personal interviews to gauge responsibility.6.

These laws have been tested in court and upheld because they do not discriminate against protected classes.Familial status in Fair Housing pertains to the presence of children (pregnant women, people with children, adoptive or foster parents).

I understand it was (allegedly) caused by a kid, but parents must take responsibility for their children's actions.
