Hi would you rent to a graduate student newly arrived from west europe with no credit history, income or domestic guarantor?

@Charles Stanback ,Population growth, job growth, crime, schools, taxes, occupancy levels, labor availability, etc. are just some of the factors that play into it.Larger macro-economic things like credit markets can also have an impact at a given time,

These are young professionals who probably dropped 200k on an MIT education and you think they are suddenly going to destroy their credit and ability to rent in the area where all of the jobs in their related field are because they can't come up with rent?

It's difficult enough to keep track of one's own immediate area. 

A better strategy would be to get your finances in order, get a job that pays well enough to save, and when you have saved some and have built your credit, look into real estate.

We both have credit scores of over 750When we move I will have about $65K in liquid cash or so for a down payment on a house.

You can try local credit unions or small banks in your city.

Bad credit, no savings, a low-paying W-2 job, etc.

But if i am looking a property for a housing track they will give me for free a developers package which is a huge 3 ring binder with all sorts of data  from demographics utlities zoning and if I request a full title search.. this all for free.. with the expectation if i buy that development they are going to get 10 to 50 million in title policies.. from my retail buyers.  

I am in the final stages of writing my contract for my wholesale deal (I meet with the sellers to sign tomorrow) and I just want to make sure this is 100% without a doubt right.So, I have it written in my contract that the EMD will be credited to the escrow account at my title company FOLLOWING the 20 day inspection period.
