No, race has nothing to do with it, and wealth doesn't always either. When I was a landlord (a house in MD that I co-owned), I was extremely cautious about who I rented to. I wanted references, and wanted to ensure that their previous dwellings were left in good shape, that they were not trouble in any way.
Now I am sure that there are people who commit crimes that also are very nice tenants, but I think that is not common. It would seem that if the landlords have to fix the place up, they would be very concerned about it being kept nice, so would be more inclined to screen applicants carefully.

Sometimes you get good tenants - and sometimes not, And that doesn't matter rich or poor nor by race. And the system doesn't make easy to evict a tenant either. ------------------------------------ Yahoo! Groups Links ------------------------------------ Yahoo!
