I have a reasonably high worth property in very good condition and it is of interest to someone from an embassy where money is no object. But i believe I may have heard mutterings that embassy staff wreck houses and are then impossible to evict to boot. Feedback most welcome.

People are cautioned not to lease their premises to the Central Bank of India for any purpose lest not only they even their generaTIONS WOULD REPENT. First of all they would never give you fair rent nor would maintain the premises in satisfactory condition and thirdly they would never vacate your premises even if they do not have any office or branch in that premises. In fact the central bank of india is builder mafia forcibly occupying the premises of poor landlords.In 1941 my father in law let out a prime property admeasuring 3800 sq. ft. at Chowk (opp. chowk police station)to Central Bank of India for opening its chowk branch. Despite repeated efforts and law, the Bank did not increase the monthly rent from Rs. 437.50. Not only this it also did not pay electricity dues, house tax and water tax in respect of the above premises despite agreement for the same. The employees have stolen antique wooden doors from the premises and the Bank is contemplating to take away the iron room built by us.On 01.06.2011, it gave to us in writing that the premises has been vacated on 31 May 2011 but despite our representatives sitting there for two days it did not hand over the vacant posession of the said premises due to obvious reasons.Therefor, l;andlords beware of the Central Bank of India as tenant.

She is on income support, but she is the best tenant. I hope I get a tenant like her. She keeps her two-bedroomed house spotless, she has decorated, and shampooed all her carpets. She pays her rent on time. Her landlord wanted to increase her rent this year but, because she is such a good tenant, he reduced the increase. My daughter is a single mum with a part-time job.

Of course they all go to party. OK some party more than others but they all do it especially in the first and second years. I went to Uni (poly) SPECIFICALLY to party and happened to get a qualification at the end and I know I am not the only one so before you start harping on about doing some research I suggest you do the same. I suggest you go to any UNI town between now and Christmas and tell me there is not partying going on! TB @somebody – what planet are you on? Of course they all go to party.

Everything is going to be ok. There's one easy way to prove I'm right and you're wrong (and you're acting like a wheeping bitch for no reason). If you were a landlord (I'm assuming you're not), and you had a choice between these 3 types of tenants: 1: students 2: a couple, both working professionals (doctors) 3: an unemployed male receiving benefits Rearrange that list in order of desirability. Most desirable being first. The order would be 2,1,3, correct? Every sane landlord on the planet would choose that order. That's all I'm really saying here. I'm not saying it's an exact science, and I'm not saying the professionals will never cause more problems than the unemployed. I'm just saying the odds are the unemployed would make worse tenants :) Yeah, so actually, I'm right, you're wrong, and you're crying over nothing. Calm down. Everything is going to be ok.

Students don't go to school to learn? Bullshit. You may THINK they all go to party, but take your greedy stereotyping cap off for a minute and do some research; you'll find that partying isn't as prevelant as you'd think.

You guys better off with Ignorant, above all. You are Parasites nothing else. Beware of People.

If I refuse to accept students, singles, or the unemployed then who is going to provide them with a home? Some of them may end up homeless, and if I see a homeless person in the street I will be thinking that I am part of this social problem. I don't like this, so I don't refuse people based on stereotypes.
