    Would you rent to someone with no credit?

    Whether you choose A, B, or move onto C, make sure you check out their stories. Do you really think that someone with bad/no credit could have owned a house and sold it? Have you ever bought a house with bad/no credit? Use your common sense when lapping up what tenants try and sell you. When...

    Would you rent to someone with no credit?

    QUOTE (kornel @ Jul 14 2010, 06:12 AM) Hi Joey and anybody else that knows the answer. I thought criminal checks were only available in the US (not in Canada due to PIPEDA). Looks like I was wrong. Can you please let myself and others know where one can go to do a criminal check on a potential...

    How long before I can serve an eviction notice?

    If it is for non-payment of rent and your rent is due on the 1st of the month, you can serve them with a hearing date on the second of the month. You don`t need to wait.

    Non-refundable cash payment for credit check?

    I think there are bigger fish to fry. It can be annoying and disappointing when one credit check after another have 5 or 10 things in collections, but at the end of the day, there are more important issues to worry about. Anyway, the more you do, the better the credit checks look with only one...

    Need a new roof for apartment building.

    I can try and find out some names for you. Baker Ventures Inc. (AKA my Mom) has replaced two roofs in the past few years. It was discovered in one case that the previous roofer tarred right over the bathroom vents!!! Just make sure you get lots of references and be around when they do it...

    Absolutly INSANE hydro bill

    Check out what your garage tenant is doing. Make sure that he`s doesn`t have something plugged in that you don`t know about. It happens. I had a tenant install heat lamps as lights once, that I didn`t discover until they moved out. I checked the place many times and couldn`t figure it out...

    Tenants won`t pay utility bills

    QUOTE (housingrental @ Apr 8 2010, 07:40 AM) I believe both Thomas and Rebbecca`s post are incorrect. Check with LTB. I think you need to go route of small claims court for the costs but are unlikely to get an eviction from them anytime soon. I`m not wrong if it pertains to the province of...

    Tenants won`t pay utility bills

    Yes you can evict for them not paying the utilities if it says they are responsible for them in your lease. That`s part of the lease and they are in default if they do not pay them. Another way you could do it is take the next payment for the utilities and write the receipt that way, and then...

    Unique Lease causing a Unique Dilemma

    I would immediately take action to evict so he knows you know what you are doing and he can see you have a system in place against con artists like himself. His case worker won`t likely be able to do anything. They just pay the portion of the rent that they agreed to pay and the rest is in...

    Would you rent to a tenant with this credit score...?

    Definitely don`t base your decision strictly on credit score, but do make sure you check their credit. If a potential tenant has a very bad tenant score I generally make sure and do extra research to make sure they will be a equity building tenant, such as past landlords and personal references...
