[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]If you don't want to rent a non-licensed rental - ask landlord for the license. All my tenants do ask. You can also check online by the property address.

But tenants who move in without asking and then stop paying blackmailing the landlord are just as equal scumbags as the landlords who rent without a license. [/quote]

Yes, sure. But plenty scumbags on here saying I don’t care I’ll take my chances. Health and safety laws are stupid and I know my rental is fine.

So it’s only fair that renters know they can say I’ll take my chances too. Only the renters would be right, given the current DC Court practice. Good luck.

Every illegal rental I find out about, I will make sure to let the renters know what they can do. If the guy calls me Bruh or tries to mansplain he’s within his rights to illegally rent, I’ll also report him. [/quote]

Just don't scream and cry here how poor tenants ended up in illegal rental, ok? They are just scumbags and know without you what they can do, so your nosy help is not helping anyone. 
The tenants usually get a hefty discount from rent for renting non-licensed accommodations (which is why they do rent them). $1500/month vs $1900/month or so.

I have licenses for my rental, but I recommend all landlords who cannot afford increase ceiling height for COO just check credit score, get SSN from the applying tenants and never accept anyone without a min 720 score. If they don't pay, I am getting employment references requests from people who lived at my property 10 years ago. Employers do care of you pay your rent and had no legal disputes, they won't be checking who is right who is wrong. They just won't hire anyone with a non paid rent, period.

Good luck getting a job in DC with your tenant dispute, where everything requires background check.

Also, I recommend landlords make use of 90-days notice to vacate and then move the tenants' belongings to a safe storage and change locks. They would be the party hiring attorneys to gain access back into your house and good luck with that, too![/quote]
