I have had 2 incidents recently that potential Tenant refuse to give out SSN before signing Lease. Rental property is minimal $750k assess, Landlord feels more comfortable to have Tenant SSNs on file to protect themselves.
What would you do in this situation if you are a landlord?

Move on, NOBODY gets in without a BG check HIRE A PM CO, PLEASE ,
As a property manager, I ensure we are following the same process for every applicant to comply with fair housing policy and any other risks that could be involved with deviating. I personally would not permit an applicant without a SSN since this would not enable us to run a background check etc. I feel the risk would be too great for my client and could not recommend moving forward. Hope your in a better spot now with this rental!
