Re: Tenant rented place for her daughter by J (FL) on September 14, 2016 @20:48

I disagree very strongly with what you just posted.

From the way the OP worded it, the mother never moved in. Just the daughter. And the daughter is causing issues with the other tenants.

They mother probably tried to present herself as a cosigner for the daughter with other landlords, and no one went for it, so they hatched this scheme. The daughter probably can't pass a background check.

Dishonest, untrustworthy people. If I added the daughter to the lease it would be a Fair Housing Violation because she doesn't meet my written criteria and I never would have rented to this duo if they had applied together in the first place. If I leave her off the lease she has no skin in the game not to cause damage to the unit. Maybe she would even move a boyfriend in without permission to make things even worse.

It's a no brainer to just end the month to month tenancy.
