"No" is the correct answer.
Do you ask your property manager what race the tenants are?
I don't.
They never tell me either.
Everything is decided on more relevant factors. Do they work? Where? For how long? Do they pay their rent on time in the past? Their ages, relationship to each other.
The first conversation I ever had with my PM I told her about a certain group of people I would not accept in my properties. She replied that she doesn't allow them either.
To all those that think it's a strange poll or a stupid/outrageous question - is it because you haven't seen any major issues before? Would you still be willing to rent to a certain group if you've seen what a lot of them have done?
I have 2 groups that I won't rent to. The first because I have seen numerous examples of what they have done to properties, and would not take a chance of that happening to mine.
The 2nd becuase whilst I don't know what they're like as tenants, they just plain scare me as people. My fiance knows police officers that have told her some very scary stories, and if I have the choice - of which I do - I will have absolutely nothing to do with them if it can be helped.
I don't consider myself racist for these feelings. If I meet people from these 2 groups (and I have with the first) and they are nice people, I have absolutely no problem with them and get along well with them, and might even rent to that specific person. But when you have so many bad apples in 1 social segment - I don't feel there is a choice but to be biased.
I don't think it's a silly poll question at all.
