The Good Landlord Simulator
Your mission: Fill 3 vacant properties with good tenants. You'll need to screen applicants based on objective criteria without violating Fair Housing laws.
Relying on "gut feelings" can lead to lawsuits and eviction costs. Can you be a fair and successful landlord?
Phase 1: Establish Your Legal Policy
Before you see any applicants, you must set your tenant screening criteria. This policy will be your only legal defense.
Legal Criteria
(Rent is $2,000/mo. A 3x ratio means $6,000/mo in income.)
Illegal Criteria (The Traps)
Selecting any of these will violate the Fair Housing Act and open you to a lawsuit.
⚠ ILLEGAL! You cannot base your policy on a protected class. Please uncheck the illegal criteria to proceed.
