How new are the furnishings in the dwelling?

It is a multifamily dwelling that had poor management and needs to be turned around.Here are the terms being offered to me.

@Anthony HurlburtBased off that website I think my case counts as one of this violation if I were to proceed with this tenant: "before or during the tenancy, set different terms, conditions, or privileges for rental of a dwelling unit, such as requiring larger deposits of some tenants or adopting an inconsistent policy of responding to late rent payments"If I require a larger deposit because they are a student, would that be a violation of fair housing act?

Is there truth to this, or should I try for a different income stream during certain seasons?
