Renting to a non citizen? What do I need to know?
Have you rented to a legal immigrant? How about undocumented immigrant?
What is the consequence to a landlord if renting to undocumented?
How do you inquire about this when screening? I don't want to discriminate, or even give the perception of doing so.
I don't know what to be more afraid of, breaking the law by asking the wrong question and consequently discriminating unintentionally, or breaking the law by renting to undocumented immigrants if it is illegal to do so. But, people have to live somewhere. Don't they ?
To be clear, I am happy to rent to qualified people no matter their national origin. I just don't want to find myself facing fines or worse.
