Tuesday, May 13th, 2008

and include the following in your e-mail:

-your Yahoo! Answers nickname
-your Yahoo! E-Mail address
-and a link to a question or answer you have on here

This will prevent:

-identity theft trolls from being added to the group

Also, please respect the fact that you may not be allowed into the group. It is ONLY for regulars, meaning people that we all know of.

I am not the ONLY person who decides who is allowed into the group. I will ask current members if they recognize the person, and if they think they should be considered a regular.

And just so this is a legit question:

Resolved Question: Is it common to ask for extensive personal financial info on a lease application?

Tuesday, May 13th, 2008

We were looking to move into a rental home because our lease term ends at the end of the month. We were surprised to see the landlord wanted very detailed personal information including:

1. Credit card account numbers and balances

2. Bank account numbers, bank’s phone number, and balances

3. Other outstanding loan info (car, student, etc), lender names, balances, and account numbers

I understand the need to ask for the prospective renter’s SSN, Driver’s License Number, and some basic info on their debts and assets (amount owed each month, account balances, etc.).

We did not choose to rent with this landlord because we were uncomfortable providing that amount of personal information to someone, especially with the increasingly high rate of identity theft and fraud. Is it a common practice to require all of this information for renting an apartment / home? We didn’t have to give anywhere near that level of information when we leased our current apartment.
I understand asking monthly payments, and possibly account balances, but they should have no reason to have the account number(s). If they want that info, they can run a full credit report, right?
