I've been reading Rich Dad, Poor Dad again and noticing how the parts about missing opportunities have been jumping out at me.We have terrible credit because of our business.

Also check the age of the system, if it is very old that is an issue, we once had a house with a brick septic, that isnt common but age can contribute to whether you need a tank or tank plus leach field.

There is NO WAY a prospective tenant can sue me for discrimination, which will not happen in my apts as I put in my own tenants.In my apts Here in Brooklyn, I have the world of all kinds of minorities and status, each of them I know very well and will stand up for my Character in Court.The diversity in my buildings are incredible and represents just about everyone.Also, because I provide them with great service and speak with them on occasions, anyone coming to my building who claims discrimination will be proven to be false as I probably already have that protected class in my building.The only commonality is that all the tenants meet a Qualification criteria of Credit, Income and other non-discriminatory criteria.BUT, I know that's not LL.

I have already sent notice to vacate(mail and nail).
