Due to the recent charges, however, NRIA has further placed the consultant on suspension pending the results of the criminal litigation and he has been removed from any activities involving the company.

I personally don't charge an application fee, because of personal reasons...I screen and then let the selected tenant complete the criminal/credit/background check through an independent party that collects the fee.

Have you already run complete financial, criminal and rental history checks on all of them?

Also a concern here is the addition being an approved/permitted spaceSection 8 not withstanding if the addition wasn't a permitted addition you'll likely will be taking a significant risk that should a tragic event take place there with a loss of life or serious injury you'll have no place to hide as most insurance companies will not pay your claims plus the civil and criminal penalties are severe!

I have a criminal record.(3 Felonies)Would I be wasting my time and money going to the classes just to find out I cant get my license and or no one will hire me?

Update on my situation: I took the guy to court, and he was hit with only a $100.00 fine, but at least he has "criminal trespass" to his name now.

So I feel I should break this down into a series of questions.Can the quality of insurance you get for an investment house depend on the tenant’s background information (criminal record, credit report, history with property damage, etc.)?

I'm interested to learn if there is an effort underway to get the DA involved, whether in CA, ID, TX....They can't be allowed to walk away from this.....it's criminal!

In fact, my wife always asks me if I have my handgun before I leave the house.The fact is that in this business, we not only have the chance of meeting a criminal by accident in a vacant property, but we also meet criminals on a daily basis in the rental business (they are called applicants).
