If you do not have a standard rental criteria you apply to all applicants, without emotion, you are only 1 mistake away from a fair housing violation and major problems.

your missing the point has nothing to do with education it has everything to do with putting buyers and sellers in direct contact.. if that worked there would be NO need at all for a real estate industry.. we would simply all sell our own homes.Now I have a tad of experience at this having done it for 42 years.. and seller often fib about their properties. withhold critical information thinking its OK... buyers are liars  etc etc.It has to do with the emotion...

We have a person wanting to rent our property with not one but two emotional support pigs!

Currently have a tenant who is always late on rent and now would like to get an emotional support dog, already allowed them two cats and knocked 50 off there rent because they couldn't afford it.

This post is probably much different than most on this site, as it's definitely emotionally -driven, not a pure investment decision.
