I understand where Thomas is coming from.I would, however, recommend you consult your attorney regarding your responsibilities under the ADA (Americans with Disabilities Act), if any.

Rehabbing houses with ADA requirements in mind does have a small but possible market if you have an interested buyer lined up.

The ADA is a law that governs PUBLIC ACCOMMODATIONS.

@Karen MargraveTo realistically get this done, Rep Issa would need to: Convince enough politicians to repeal or amend FHA;Convince enough politicians to repeal or amend ADA;Convince the Ninth Circut to overturn it precedent on the basis of repealing/amending the FHA and the ADA;Repeat the same process for similar language found in the state law and/or the state constitution. 

Your place may also need to be updated to comply with ADA standards which may or may not get expensive depending on the layout of everything.

Some tenants are also using ADA to have a pet so adhering to ADA rules in developing pet policies has become another legal aspect we are now responsible to understand, so I think it's kind of getting more difficult to have an across the board absolute "NO" on pets.

Even federal ADA guidelines allow a "service animal" to be excluded if it is not housebroken. 

My local phone company ad a service called " remote call forwarding".

Potentially my second small Multi-Family in very hot market (Ada County Idaho, basically Boise and surrounding suburbs). 

Commercial projects require sprinklers in all units, ADA (in 1-unit), a civil survey, DRA, etc., etc.
