They might be criminals who are tricking you for critical things to get what they need.  

The CQ or staff duty desk allows one to reach the chain of command if there is destruction to your property or criminal activity is occuring there.  

I am currently representing a client in a neighboring city that is being charged criminally for operating a STR without a business license.

If your property was vacant and now people are living there without your permission then that is criminal trespassing, breaking and entering and probably also destruction of property and larceny if they took anythingThat being said, the police may still tell you that you have to evict them if they say they have a lease/rental agreement

I have a document of our rental criteria that clearly lays out credit scores, criminal background criteria, and income criteria.

Or should i say criminal behavior which doing this and wiring in your money then they go dark on you is of course a criminal act.

Materials 10K and Labor is 15k.Contractor buying materials - Contractor asks for half upfront and potentially walks away with $12.5kYou buying materials (Labor only) - you pay half upfront of $7.5k and contractor quits on you, you lose out on $7.5kWhen you purchase the materials and the contractor walks away with it, it now becomes a criminal issue and not just a civil case, because you paid and own the materials.

I have had my fair share of applicants who wanted to pay the full year in advance and there was always a reason behind it - poor credit score/criminal history etc.

I like the fact that the reply from Zillow usually includes the person's real name (so that I can check housing court, criminal court, and google them before I reply), and a phone number.
