Require proof of ESA certification, letter from a doctor, proof of dog training and good canine citizen certification if you need to but don't throw out a potentially great tenant and good dog just because you think it's a 'dangerous breed'.

@Abby Carr In my experience seniors are great renters.

Not sure if this is the right forum category for this question...I am in US (North Carolina) and trying to help a friend who is a Canadian citizen to invest in foreclosures in North Carolina.

I would never ask my senior tenant to give up her cats of 10 yrs because I bought the house.

once said in a court case " it is the right of every American citizen to arrange his affairs in the best manner possible to pay as little in income taxes as possible."

You might consider mailing to Seniors with Low Financial Stability Scores.

Just last month at final, senior inspector tried to fail me for not having tempered windows in bathroom, but code also actually allows laminated glass.

If you are a senior citizen and managing the property yourself, do you want to stress yourself out in your golden years?

With respect to FHA loan to get a property in Seattle, WA , I am also currently on a H1B Visa so I'm not sure if non citizens are eligible for this type of loan.

Retaliation is also a real concern and some of the cops lack the professionalism to respond to a situation discretely without implicating citizens that are cooperating with them.
