@Chase Preston- thanks for the post and outline . 

First though, I am not an attorney and this is not legal advice.In my opinion, what you are describing is illegal and I always would suggest to stay away of skirting any laws/rules.

As a licensed realtor in California, I'm eager to leverage my expertise but also recognize the value of community insights and collaboration.This is my first post here, so I'm not entirely sure of the usual depth of information shared, but I'm open to discussing all options and grateful for any guidance or suggestions from this esteemed community.Looking forward to your input and advice.Best regards,Benjamin Carter

Try going to local meetups and say the same thing you did in this post.

I wanted to post it just to pique some interest and hope to hear some opinions as it covers two of my favorite subjects.

If I’m reading your post correctly you didn’t even drive out to the development?  

I'll post details when I have some time to reflect.

You can read my previous forum post to explore my journey. 

Facebook Marketplace and Facebook Groups is probably a good start.Zillow now offers posted rentals by the room, but not sure who is looking there.In terms of running background and credit check, I like mysmartmove.com.

Ken,Mike Hern's post is AWESOME!
