    Eh, as you eloquently put it, shelter with privacy and dignity, at market rate.

    I don't see why a self employed person should be considered any more risky than an employee, they are potentially less risky in many ways.
    I see it not as being a self-employed person being more risky, but rather that to a landlord, the tenant with references vs the tenant who has no references, that the former wins.

    The bigger picture is that when the "small time" landlords are pushed out, the requirements will increase.

    If your business is doing well, perhaps save for a deposit and buy your own home/apartment.


    Not completely *that* well yet ;p besides, I'd rather not buy into this market - bring on the next crash already ;D if it actually took who it should down with it this time, that is
