As long as your standards and criteria are resonable(and legal) never deviate or make exceptions to them for anyone.  

Really the main risk when inheriting tenants is that a) they have a long lease in place thats under market rent and b) the tenants are poorly managed and do not know the procedures of your company. 99% of the time people are genuinely nice and just want to continue living in their current home.

I was genuinely trying to figure out her "financial picture" to understand if she can afford the rent.

Furthermore, even insurance carriers are worried about FHA violations and may subject themselves to lawsuits if they prohibit breeds and a tenant or owner has a valid and genuine ESA designation.

Smile in a genuine way, and look at your watch and skeedaddle.  

The use of Airbnb in most places is here to stay - they are providing a service that customers resonate with.

I listened to the CEO and he sounded genuine.

When it comes to these types of situations, be observant on how the contractor decides to handle things... it can be a big tell on whether or not they are genuine and are someone you should consider working with in the future!

If they're genuinely affected and can prove it with documentation then I'll waive late fees and abstain from eviction proceedings.  

Genuinely curious as I'm going through this.
