You're taking ACTION, that's what's important.

After learning, action is the hardest step to take!

The 7th/Camp Bowie area in Ft Worth, along with the TCU area are experiencing very similar action.  

I think it is great that he took action.

If you deny an applicant or take any adverse action (i.e. charge higher security deposit, require co-signer, etc) based on information in their consumer credit file, then you should be sending them an adverse action letter which basically tells them what consumer reporting agency supplied the info you relied on, the contact info for that agency, and how they can get a free copy of their own credit report. 

Definitely not planning on paying for a program...especially before taking any real world action steps.

Congrats on taking action and working towards your financial independence!  

Will a rent credit trigger the Frank-Dodd Act, or qualify as some sort of securities trading?

I guess what I forgot to put in my OP was any tips or tracks of the RE Pros Trade I can benefit from.

Plus it might incentivize you to look at trade school after college :)
