“I have read that you cannot charge points.I have heard that no license is needed …” Many of the comments you read on this board, @Michael Gardner, are by those who have never lend a dime in their life, and certainly not their own money, yet they parrot what they’ve read from other threads until it becomes “truth.”

And truth is it's far FAR more weighted on a person, the personality, vs any company organization or lack there of. 

That is so far from the truth it isn't even funny.

To help clarify a few points:Speaking in general terms; how property tax works is a 2 part system, and each side likes to blame the other although truth is it's almost always at the state level where your taxes are raised. 

I "get" those acting from the crayon-box of simplicity in "payoff debt, get to 0, then maybe, someday, start" but truth is, for the disciplined, strategic, methodical persons, yes there is a better way that get's debt free AND builds LT wealth generation all at same time. 

Even though a letter was provided, the housing provider has the right to call the doctor and verify they actually prescribed the animal for the patient.The truth is, emotional support animals are one of the greatest frauds taking place right now and the housing provider is right to verify your friend's claim.

And truthfully if they did do something special...

@Nick ChorubyYou could have him sign an affidavit stating what the rents are which would probably be a nightmare to sue him after on but could put some grit under him to tell the truth.

Truthfully, you don't need it to succeed.

The truth was (and still is) that most SFR owners were small local mom and pops who intentionally kept low profiles and built systems not to scale but to keep their sanity as single operators.
