Hey All, My name is Alan and I just wanted to share that I closed on my first 5 homes 2 years ago, I am a veteran from Texas and have worked as a teacher my whole adult life.

I mention that every adult is screened, that applicant must make 3x the rent, and whether or not pets are accepted.

I started my adult working life in sales at a big box retailer.

PLEASE DON’T WAIT.LD 1255, introduced by Portland Representative Grayson Lookner, mandates that once the Governor’s Pandemic Emergency Declaration expires, most for-cause evictions are banned for ninety days.It specifically and by name or number bans evictions for:Rental defaultExpiration of leaseTenant causing substantial damage to property – 14 MRS § 6002(1)(A)Tenant causing a nuisance-at-law or causing the property to become unfit for habitation – 14 MRS § 6002(1)(B)Tenant is a perpetrator of domestic violence, sexual assault or stalking against another tenant – 14 MRS § 6002(1)(D)Tenant or guest threatens or commits violence, threatens violence or sexual assault against a tenant, guest, landlord or landlord’s agent – 14 MRS § 6002(1)(E)Person is an unauthorized squatter – 14 MRS § 6002(1)(F)We suggest you tell your legislators:“Right now, during the emergency, my tenants are protected, under law, from bad tenants.

It is typical for all adults residing in the property to be required to sign the lease.

Should all adults who will be living in the property always be on the lease agreement?

I have a NJ rental (good 5 bedroom rental house, but not so good neighborhood and therefore not so good tenants). 3 adults, 4 kids and pets. 10 months prior to the end of the lease (All 3 adults signed one lease.

There's one adult 3 kids..

Consider the most important qualifiers and focus on those.Let them know you will be running a credit/criminal background check on every adult.

My exception to the credit score rule would be if the tenant had NO score at all, which likely indicates they are an immigrant, just starting out in adult life, or a huge Dave Ramsey fan.
