FELONS: DWI Felony Surprise

I had a client tell me a she heard her DWI Felony would be accepted at "Most Complexes"

So I called every complex in the area she wanted to live. Only one-fourth, or 25% of the complexes would accept her. Most had a "No Felony" rule. Some said she could apply after 5, 6, or 7 years. One said "she can live there in 10 years:.

Only 3 will even talk to her now. Is it fair? Maybe not, but it is factual. ANY TYPE OF FELONY WILL HURT YOUR CHANCES OF GETTING AN APARTMENT. Some misdemeanors, like assault, will as well.

If you have a misdemeanor, a deferred felony (deferred adjudication for a felony offense), or a felony, you need the help of a trained locator who specializes in helping felons.

Someone like me.

GENERAL INFORMATION: Which would you rather get from me?

I'm considering changing how I reward my clients...

Please let me know what you would prefer receiving. A gift card or a check. My broker has agreed to issue the checks on my behalf and I am considering changing over. Gift Cards are more difficult to send, easier to lose, and much easier to steal.

All good reasons for making the change. But what do you think?

Do you care?
