RE: Renting to Illegal immigrants
Desiree... hmmm I have not. I am not sure what the laws are regarding this. Since they are legal citizens, not sure how that would effect renting to them. However I do not believe there is a law on this, but a smart landlord will want to see proof of citizenship from perspective tenants, to protect their future rental income on that unit.

RE: Renting to Illegal immigrants
I have a tenant whose husband doesn't have papers. These couple was recommended to me by my former tenant of 10 years. All of them are members of the same church. The wife of the husband is legal but not a citizen yet. I took a copy of the wife's legal douments like green card and driver's license on the application. I had them since 2008 and never had a problem. They are just quiet and pays on time. That is my experience...

Feature Spotlight: Why do I need A Lease Package?

Those basic leases you can find in office supply stores or buy from online vendors can look appealingly cheap and easy, but chances are, they don't meet all of the legal requirements for binding leases in your state. If you entrust your rental unit to a stand-alone lease, you may not be fully protected, especially if you wind up in court with your tenant over a contract dispute.

By using our exclusive Lease-Builder Wizard with State Assist, you'll get unmatched convenience, peace of mind, and protection for not much more than other sites charge for a generic lease.
