Making this up but you will probably need to own 100 of these to match the stories you’re referring to.  

I have personally known Dmitriy for over 15 years, and my company Marshall Reddick has referred him hundreds of clients since then that have all raved about his service, knowledge, and professionalism.

I checked the Better Business Bureau for complaints, I checked the NJ State Attorney General consumer division to ensure he was licensed, I checked every reference he gave by visiting sites and speaking with the homeowners. 

Now that you have the correct terminology, you can search for lots of potential solutions. 

I wouldn’t think this would necessarily be the correct solution in a condo unit.

These platforms are affordable and offer comprehensive reports (credit, background, eviction history) without you having to handle sensitive information directly.Verify Employment and Landlord History: Your plan to request pay stubs and a landlord reference is solid.

Hire an attorney and proceed with the eviction.In the future, I recommend you don't accept "landlord references" from friends or family members.

Doubt he has those receipts they are referred to as.

Quote from @HMS Realty Home Mortgage Solutions: Have you thought about starting out with the first investment of buying your own home? 

The fear of unknown and the bad potentials, but then sh_t happens and ya remember that we got a choice to lay down and be done in by it or roll-up the sleeves and get to work and be a solution maker.
