Okay I am all for giving as much info as needed to get a nice home to live in but I do draw the line at credit checks, lol for one mine is shitty cause of student loans but that is it... now this add I found is asking not only for references which I would give willingly but they want credit check and a police check...
How badly does one have to be burned to do that??? Besides what if a person has been in trouble with the law when they were in their teens and it showed up do we judge them on this... prostitution police record, would the landlord say no way to that or would they accept them figuring oh well if they loss their job I will get paid one way or another lol... Seriously what do you think??? Do you think they are going too far or should all landlords be able to go into everyone's background that much???
And next what are they going to ask for, CAS records, or Divorce Records... or Job Preformance Records...
Here is the add....

I think police checks is way over the line, I could almost see that as a sort of discrimination. if they are that untrusting of someone, they are in the wrong business.

I will never move somewhere that needs that much info on me. I`d rather camp in the woods.

I thought you were discussing housing...  Anyway... Don`t they need a reason to enter, and search peoples homes? I have heard of the road checks. They can now pull people over just for driving without "restraints". (I hate that word... it fits though) I just started using mine, the damn thing will strangle me if I get into an accident, it goes right across my neck. But mommy government said we need them....  so I comply. (another word I hate) It`s getting way out of hand. Too much power, they need to step back.

I was discussing housing lol... but also agree about the police being able to go online, but that they should have to have a reason for taping anyones email is that what that is called lol...
Back to the housing thing though, I surely would not agree to this, and I would worry that the next thing on that landlords list would be a police record search for anyone who came in your home....
That is going way to far in my opinion!!!

That wouldn't surprise me...Even though I`m going to hope that it never gets that bad.
