Personally, if you're going to go all underhanded then I'd suggest a bigger score to make up for the risk, but if you think it's worth your time to scam poor people out of $60 at a time then you probably have bigger problems to worry about.

depends on the state.

'State laws about application fees differ widely, so it’s important to know the rules in your state. Both renters and landlords should check into their state laws on this. California, for example, caps application fees at $47.22, and landlords need to provide the results to tenants if they request it."

The proof is that you didn't rent it out to a single tenant you dipshit. Your scam will work until someone who meets the requirements decides to sue for discrimination. You would get raped in court for a scam this dumb.

Because people just won't pay after a certain. His scam depends on people not meeting the requirements, and if the fee is too expensive, only people who would qualify for his bogus requirements will apply

>> No.18627432

Another idea (or how to become a real estate broker): list an apartment for rent and make really nice pictures and a pretty good price. You will get a lot of interest, but when people come to check out the property, make sure there's shit splashed on the walls, it smells like shit, the fridge isn't working etc. The plan is to collect money from people paying to check out the property (idk how it's called in English)

Its the last sentence I was referring to, and I specifically quoted it. Yes OP is not asking if its "good or bad" but that doesnt change the matter the way civilized "whites" think. I have seen Euro tourists getting fucking scammed, robbed and what not because of this idea that everybody is good-willed that only happens in white homogeneous first world countries. Outside that world its a fucking jungle, a land of jackals, eat or be eaten. Naive whites dont realize this and duel on ethical dilemmas.

I take issue with /pol/tards insisting that "white people good always!", notice how you had to admit the "always" at the end to make your point? whites are generally good, but they are not infallible which is why I criticized people like yourself for always covering for whites and pretending that they are good (always)

also the "goodness" of whites is partially related to the overall level of development in a country as well, this is why you could just as easily get scammed in latin america as you could in eastern europe. its funny how one dimensional you poltards are

It is absolutely illegal. And, because it's housing related, it carries more strict punishments for what would normally come with such small sums. It gets even worse because the lawyer will absolutely try to pin racial discrimination on you as well, which will compound the sentence.
But if you can find a reason for why you denied their applications that applies across the board, then you should be fine. Though you might still get taken to court and the jury will absolutely hang you regardless of if you were doing it legally or not.
Of course, that ignores what people you fuck over doing this might do. There are plenty of men out there who would rather just blow your brains out and risk jail than let you get away with fucking them over.

Add it to my comment, changes nothing, just didnt feel the need to write more since the point was made. "White people good" its the same as "white people good always!", you have a very thick head.

>people like yourself for always covering for whites and pretending that they are good (always)
When have I ever said such a thing? Did you read what I wrote?
What has any of what I said meant that I have "always" covered for whites? You started your reply with how I:
>had to admit [omit] the "always" at the end to make your point?
And now you put words in my mouth? start being consistent with what you are saying.

>whites are generally good
Again, you are the one here projecting this idea.

Also whats with you insisting in me being from /pol/? Cant I think for myself without larping 4chan's point of view?

If you are a mutt then we are both the same except you are butthurt about people implying non-whites are inherently unconcerned by ethical dilemmas.
