.- About a month ago, he tells me he's depressed since his mom passed, his therapist has upped his meds, and now he can't function properly. 

This would be a letter from a physician or therapist explaining that the prospective tenant has a medical need for the animal.There is *no such thing* as a license, certificate, or registration for ESAs or SAs.

I now work at a syndication company doing asset management and some of the acquisition.This is what I realized.Real Estate Syndicators are like therapists.

Real estate brokerage, dentist, insurance, massage therapist, and commercial cleaning company.

Graduating High School I planned on majoring in Kinesiology to become a Physical Therapist because my parents always wanted to have a doctor in the family.

This forgery was verified by contacting that doctor’s office directly (because tenant provided an incorrect number) and providing them with a copy of the document.The fact that they didn’t tell us about the pet prior to signing and now have presented us with fake documents to avoid pet fees, we feel like we don’t want that type of tenant living in our property.The catch that we want to be cautious of is ESA’s are protected by fair housing and even though this pet may be “registered” on a website, there is no licensed doctor or therapist backing it.

Energized to be a part of such an uplifting and knowledgeable community.  

Could you sell it and do a 1031 into a project that makes you feel more energized and excited?

In addition, therapists do not get rich - although I make a decent living, I also have a daughter with a disability (it takes a lot of resources to raise a child with disabilities), so there was never any money left over to save for retirement. 

When I had contacts a few years ago from some traveling physical therapists for a 4 month stay, that is what I did and Idaho is a very land lord friendly state.No messing around trying to do it myself.
