class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>\nAs a landlord or property manager, you can ask a prospective tenant several questions to assess their suitability. Some key topics to inquire about include:<\/p>\n<p>1. **Identification**: You can ask for identification to verify the individual\u2019s legal name, age, and current address.<br \/>\n2. **Employment and income**: It\u2019s reasonable to ask about their employment status, income level, and job stability to ensure their ability to meet rent obligations.<br \/>\n3. **Rental history**: Inquire about their past rental experiences, including references from previous landlords, to determine their reliability and past behavior as a tenant.<br \/>\n4. **Credit history**: You can request permission to run a credit check to evaluate their financial responsibility and ensure they are capable of paying rent on time.<br \/>\n5. **Criminal background**: It\u2019s permissible to ask about their criminal history to ensure the safety and wellbeing of other tenants and the property itself.<br \/>\n6. **Reason for moving**: You can inquire about the reasons behind their desire to move to gain insights into their motivations and expectations.<\/p>\n<p>It&#8217;s important to note that while you can ask these questions, it is equally important to treat all prospective tenants equally and consistently. Moreover, make sure to comply with fair housing laws that prohibit discrimination based on race, color, religion, sex, disability, familial status, or national origin.<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Frequently_Asked_Questions_FAQs\"><\/span>Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Q1_Can_I_ask_if_the_person_has_pets\"><\/span>Q1: Can I ask if the person has pets?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>\nYes, it is within your rights to ask a prospective tenant if they have pets. However, be aware of any local and state laws regarding limitations on pet-related questions or restrictions.<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Q2_Am_I_allowed_to_inquire_about_their_smoking_habits\"><\/span>Q2: Am I allowed to inquire about their smoking habits?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>\nWhile you cannot ask if a tenant smokes, you can ask if they are interested in a nonsmoking property or if they have any preferences regarding smoking.<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Q3_Is_it_acceptable_to_ask_if_they_have_children\"><\/span>Q3: Is it acceptable to ask if they have children?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>\nNo, asking about the presence of children is considered discriminatory. However, you can inform them about the property&#8217;s features, such as nearby schools, that might be relevant to families.<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Q4_Can_I_ask_for_their_social_security_number\"><\/span>Q4: Can I ask for their social security number?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>\nGenerally, it\u2019s not necessary to ask for a social security number.

Focus on the applicant\u2019s ability to meet financial responsibilities instead.<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Q6_Can_I_inquire_about_their_citizenship\"><\/span>Q6: Can I inquire about their citizenship?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>\nAsking about an applicant&#8217;s citizenship status is illegal. Instead, you can ask about their legal status to verify their eligibility to sign a lease agreement.<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Q7_What_can_I_ask_their_references\"><\/span>Q7: What can I ask their references?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>\nWhen contacting references, you can ask about the applicant&#8217;s rental payment history, behavior, and whether they would re-rent to the applicant.<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Q8_Can_I_ask_about_their_previous_evictions\"><\/span>Q8: Can I ask about their previous evictions?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>\nYes, you can ask about previous evictions or legal disputes related to tenancy to assess their history as a tenant.<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Q9_Is_it_lawful_to_question_their_disability_or_medical_conditions\"><\/span>Q9: Is it lawful to question their disability or medical conditions?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>\nNo, inquiring about an applicant&#8217;s disability or medical conditions is strictly prohibited by fair housing laws. Focus on their ability to meet the lease terms instead.<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Q10_Can_I_ask_if_they_are_currently_facing_bankruptcy\"><\/span>Q10: Can I ask if they are currently facing bankruptcy?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>\nWhile you cannot ask about their current bankruptcy status, you can request information related to their income and credit history, which might indirectly reveal such circumstances.<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Q11_Is_it_acceptable_to_ask_about_their_sexual_orientation\"><\/span>Q11: Is it acceptable to ask about their sexual orientation?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>\nNo, asking about an applicant&#8217;s sexual orientation is considered discriminatory. Ensure you create an inclusive and welcoming environment for all tenants.<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Q12_Can_I_ask_for_a_security_deposit_upfront\"><\/span>Q12: Can I ask for a security deposit upfront?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>\nYes, it&#8217;s common practice to request a security deposit to protect against potential damages or unpaid rent.
