Tenant left during the second month, after we rented a U-Haul for them. 

(My 0 looks like a u).

My reasons for evicting:always more than 10 days late on rentlied to me about the business he was going to be operatinglied to me about having employees (one of which is sex offender and my building I own next him has a has a tenant that runs a business dealing with children (( Ive talked to the sheriffs office and there isnt anything they can do))Property has several junk cars on blocks and is very unsightly.If I have to give a reason are these legal reason to not renew his lease? 

None of these are sales oriented like REIA so check them out and see what might work for you to plug into the local community and ask your questions.https://www.meetup.com/Apartment-Investor-Mastery-...https://www.meetup.com/en-AU/Austin-Apartment-Inve...https://www.meetup.com/REALESTATEinvestormastermin...

Do not mention or ask questions about race, color, religion, sex, national origin, handicap, sexual orientation, marital status, or familial status.

I only flip now and do not want to deal with tenants that could turn out to be crazy drug people, terrorists, gun runners and or sex traffickers.

I understand the race/religion/sex anit-discrimination, but what about the stuff you find on Facebook?

Conversely, rents in most of Saint John (save some small pockets of Uptown) and au nord de la provence are considerably lower (and vacancy rates considerable higher).The homestead break for owner-occupents is considerable, but property tax on residential rental property is not {quite} double that of owner occupied properties.  

Did they meet you in a U-Haul truckAlways go to their home - look at how they live - check their drivers lic, make sure it is the same address as where they liveCheck the SDAT to make sure the landlord is really their landlord - sometimes bad tenants will give false references.Always check with landlords other than their last one.Frst months rent and security deposit must be cash do not accept checks or money orders.

How much does your FIL know about fair housing laws, lead based paint disclosures, sex offender notification, the Americans with Disabilities Act, landlord - tenant law in the state of LA or other local ordinances?
