I've heard they can be rough, since students/young people will not treat your property as well as adults.

I am a real estate broker in Hartford County, and I was in the corporate environment for most of my adult life.  11 years ago, I got licensed, then 4 years ago I got my brokers license and started my own thing.  

There is no overt rent control (yet) but ordinances that come just shy are being pushed;  things like forcing you to pay 3 months moving costs to each adult resident if you ever raise rent more than 10% in a year and the tenant(s) move.   

I live in the basement unit of a house and I rent out the upstairs to skinny young adults and if you heard the stomping around that I hear you would be convinced they are all 300+ pounds upstairs. 

Also, noted here is that the "landlord" said she was in the house "too long", which seems to me that there was a comment made about a "temporary stay" until the "adult child(ren)"  and their children and dog, found their own place.I would think there was damage done, probably by the animals - either dander or feces or urine or even scratches to the doors or walls.

She moved in Nov. 1 and did't pay rent in January, so now she has 2 evictions on her record and owes me about $1000.The second one is a mom and her two adult daughters who had signed a lease with the previous owner that started 2 weeks before we bought the house.  

I told each person that came that all adults that plan on living there needed to submit an online application no later than an hour after the showing, and that if there was already an application on file, that I needed an email confirming that they were still interested after touring it.I then was able to filter through the applications to see who met the minimum screening criteria- 1. did they fill out the application in it's entirety, and 2. do they make the minimum amount of income required.

Interestingly, in our country's housing laws, children under a certain age don't count as people- so if your code department limits an apartment to four people and the expecting mother in a family of four adults has a baby, this family would still be considered four people. 

So far she is complying but I also found out why is she complaining as well: her adult son is visiting during the day her quite often bringing his drinking buddies and are making a scene in front of the other tenants cursing and giving everyone dual hand 3 finger salutes.

About a year ago there was a murder of a lone female convenience store clerk.
