When I was growing up, we got peanut butter and cheese from the government, we got clothes from older cousins, and went outside and played instead of belonging a gym. 

so apparently one of my PM tenants lost her job and instead of finding a new one, according to the neighbors. has people knocking on the shared front porch door often for tailoring services and she also sells clothes from her apt and babysits too.the lease doesn't say she cant do business from home nor say she can't put a sign in her window, but what about the quiet enjoyment for other tenants?

If I really don't like someone, there's always a way to make then go elsewhere without denying them housing, this enticing them to reject your offer of housing. charge higher rent ask for a higher deposit make fun of their car or clothes be late for an appointment, continue to offer them appointments at weird times or locations charge for applications and or showings approve their application, but for a different property, not the nice one. charge a move in fee In general, it's okay to charge a higher rent/fees if you think the tenant is high risk.
