Hi folks,
My husband and I are in the process of renting out one of our duplex units, and the best applicant so far has a pet rabbit. This applicant has good references, and we would otherwise not hesitate to rent to someone like her - if not for the rabbit.
Although she otherwise seems very accommodating, she's not willing to negotiate on this pet (because it was given to her by her father, who is currently battling cancer).
I've heard that rabbits will chew through anything if let loose, and that's the only thing that's holding me back from renting to her.
Am I blowing things out of proportion? Does anyone have experience with tenants who have rabbits?
Any advice would be appreciated!
Lillian
