Forum / Tenant Screening/Advertising / How to deny when Vet Admin will pay most of rent?

I have an applicant who cannot qualify for my rental on their own family income. They claim the Veterans Administration will send a check for $1,000 each month to my bank account. The renter then will give me the remaining $450. I don't want to be involved in any way with the government. I feel I will have to learn certain regulation, fill out forms and make reports. How can I safely deny a lease to this person?

If they are qualifying but you have others in mind, just say that other applicants met your criteria or make it a time thing. Like this applicant had the same credit but applied before you. if they ask. I keep it pretty general when sending any denials.
