Re: Lies on rental application - Landlord Forum thread 151367

Re: Lies on rental application by Jack Klein (NY) on February 15, 2008 @18:40

                              
I am happy to know of more than one tenant who was arrested (and evicted from the property)for defrauding the landlord to gain access to the rental.

These are usually cases where the tenant blatently lied on the application about who they were, where they were employed, etc.

It is a crime to commit fraud. (That goes for bad checks too) And if you (above posters) were the defrauded landlord by a criminal tenant, you might like to know that a call to your DA can work wonders. You do need proof of the fraud to bring to the DA/Police.

A tenant lied on his application then I signed a lease with him and the day after I signed he came clean that he lied. I want to cancel the lease according to the clause that allows me to cancel because he was not truthful on his application. I have not delivered keys or cashed his checks.
