Los Angeles is almost identical to San Francisco in their eviction laws.

Their current building is not renewing leases for whatever reason and so now my client who just gained citizenship last year and his wife, a victim of identity fraud, are in the market competing for a new lease.One thing I've noticed is that landlords want 700+ credit scores or else it's a futile effort submitting applications.In the perfect world for a landlord, when they put their property on the market, they may get 10 people to submit applications, and likely out of those there will be at least one who checks all of the boxes - great!

They don't require income verification and sometimes only require source for cash to close (and no reserve requirement).Stephanie

If they are VERY professional, they will have their processes in writing as verification that policies are enforced equally and fairly by their entire staff.6.

I advise that you speak with several lenders and ask if they provide any non-income verification mortgages, this may be an option, especially since you hold 100% equity.

They are paying $1,450/mo (3 year lease) while I rented out an identical place on the same street for $2,000/mo last august.

Always verify identity then run the background screening.Always take first payments in certified funds.

If you have a pool or Hot tub, I would probably avoid putting one there, you might see something you don't want to see.If you are concerned about Wifi security Set up two Channels in the home, one that hidden and is locked with 2 step verification, and another that is viewable and locked, the P/W is given to the Tenant upon arrival instructions.  

Since I know my windows have lead, and the rest of the windows on other units are identical, when the lead test is performed on the exterior it will find lead. 

If they are VERY professional, they will have their processes in writing as verification that policies are enforced equally and fairly by their entire staff.6.
