What exactly that behavior is I haven't clarified yet, but I am guessing things like stomping around upstairs etc.Tenant A wants to know what their options are for breaking the lease, mainly how much notice would we need, and they have not found a new place yet- this is a college town and classes start next week so finding a place will be difficult.  

Since they are ultimately the person that knows their character, and knows their past behavior that is the best person that you can ask because they have no reason to tell you something that is not true.  

"That would explain the extreme pricing and realtor's behavior in not budging on the listing price...

Not sure if it is state or federal, but if a turn down decision is made based on info in the credit report, landlords are required to declare that (but not what the specific reason is, there is a standard form that can be used) and give them the info to contact the credit bureaus themselves.We have no evictions as a stated criteria, but applicants don't always realize that there past poor behavior went far enough in the court system to be on the credit report.

They are all short term rentals so everybody is on their best behavior and we don't ever have to deal with that roommate who always leaves dishes in the sink!

I will refrain from commenting any further in response to such behavior and say only this, good luck to you on your potential deal, stick to the numbers that make sense and provide you positive cash flow, and get the best deal you can, hopefully the good info in this thread has or will help you to accomplish that goal.

Is there anything positive to be said by experienced Flippers about HOAs or even by people who are not profiting or have a vested interest in their behavior?

Aren't you glad you found out this about them before they moved in and started this kind of behavior.

I could deal with most of that but I wouldn't want a ton of dogs with behavior issues at the property.

What if I have a signed agreement with my friend/client prior to her going under contract with my broker.I can say that Im truly shocked and hurt by this behavior.
