I'm sorry, I can't accommodate you, but I understand that you might not want to continue living here.  

We have several student accommodations and the prime lease-up windows are late February - April (for those who are very organised and looking for a lease starting in May or September) and June - July (for those who are less organised, or were accepted in to a programme last minute).

I always acted as fast as I could to accommodate them but if they are in cahoots with the AC company I don't know what I can do ....of course they are using it as an excuse not to pay rent. 

You must allow an emotional support animal as a reasonable accommodation for your tenant, but you don't have to allow a non-tenant's emotional support dog on your property.Here is a document that explains the laws for CA regarding the differenty types of support animals, and whether they have the right to go anywhere in public, etc.

Being required to provide a reasonable accommodation is not the same thing.

You've made reasonable accommodations and should not be liable for their hotel expenses.  

He rents houses to them for their overflow students who can't be accommodated in their own properties.

Working with tenants to accommodate their needs is customer service.

If you have a lot of demand for properties, then the agent can be a little more selfish with her time, knowing she can show the house during an open house at lunch and get a few applicants.In a slower market, you would have to put in more time to do showings, and you would also have to accommodate the times people are willing to come and see the place.So, if you are in a slower market AND the agent isn't willing to accommodate an evening showing, then you know she isn't great.For what it's worth, when I have a new rental hit the market, I try to hold an open house for the first set of showings on a weekday from 4:30 - 5:30.  

@Rod Joseph same here same here - i think section 8 is a great way to accommodate folks that otherwise couldn't afford the places they rent / helps them / helps the landlord so all good.
