We afford them the opportunity to self organize a schedule, but if that fails and things do not get cleaned, we reserve the right to send in our cleaning service and bill the tenants/roomers;- laundry facilities are to be used between 08:00 and 22:00;- quite hours after 22:00 until 06:00;- intimidation and/or abusive treatment of housemates will not be tolerated and will result in being asked to leave;- belongings left in common areas may be confiscated by landlord {this came about as the result of a tenant who always left his bicycle in the front hall - despite there being a shed in the yard}.- at some properties we set a cap on the monthly utility consumption and levy a surcharge if the tenants collectively exceed that amount.At our main student rooming house we have a live-in Den Mother which goes a long ways to maintaining peaceful operations with the above basic ruleset.

That could be considered abuse, and you should have something in your lease that says only tenants are allowed access to these areas.

Yes there were abuses but not very many but a few cases caused some states to make them illegal.

I've had a property manager deny my property in 2020 because it was in a certain area and they just reached out to me to see if I'd consider them again.

Hi i am looking to purchase an investment property in the next few months using seller financing somehow so i dont have to go thru the bank as i would be denied right now for a loan. i am wondering if i should use an agent to find properties for me or is this a waste of their time to help me if i want to use seller financing. i just dont want to be wasting anyones time as i know time is valuable in this line of work and i dont want to make anyone mad. if anyone that has used this method of purchasing a property could help me out here i would greatly appreciate it as this is new territory for me. thanks
