I have never seen the LPA application form, as I have one of my own from 20 years ago. So I don't know what specific questions it asks. However, ask yourself this question : would you be willing to fill it out completely about yourself, and give it to another landlord whom you have just met for the first time ? How about a friend or relative of yours ? Is the form more "intrusive" than what we as LLs would have to fill out to get a mortgage on a rental property ? I realize there is certain info we LLs need to make a decision about the applicant, but some apps go overboard on their questions. A simple solution is to just use "white out" through the questions you feel are not needed. Or you can make your own app using the LPA app as a guide.
