I would like buy and rent out in areas where tenants can pass a criminal background and have no evictions.

But I don't see how they can ever pass a law that you can't mail to anyone for any reason.There's a freedom of speech issue when it comes to mail.

My tenants are contractors working at a refinery in my town.They have to pass a drug screen before they can enter the gate to work. 

The typical home inspection should give you a good ballpark as to whether the additions will pass a building inspection or require major repairs.

I'm leaning towards doing the following:- do not allow sublet, but allow the tenant who wants to leave the option to terminate the lease early- as a prerequisite to early termination, the tenant must locate a replacement who will pass a credit/reference check and is acceptable to the other tenants- the departing tenant must pay a termination fee to cover the credit/reference check plus a little more for my legwork- the tenants can work out any transfer of their shares of the security deposit among themselves

If the property cannot pass as livable then you will not be able to use DSCR financing.

If they are willing to pass a ban like this, it shows they are serious about getting something done within the city limits.

If you are a little more specific I may be able to pass a name or two along.

If the government were to pass a law that said 3 muslims talking were a crime, that would be a violation of the freedom of association.FREEDOM OF INFORMATION: Government has closed once-public immigration hearings, has secretly detained hundreds of people without charges, and has encouraged bureaucrats to resist public records questions.Who have they secretly detained without charges?

Only intent was to act as a broker and that this activity is really "disguised" brokerage, especially if the investor has a track record of this activity .I believe the courts will agree if the investor picked fits the profile.Or, maybe Sacramento will just pass a law required the investor to stay in the deal for a set period of time and to maintain liability.during that time.
