Crystal Lynn Hampton / Martha Kaye Bauer Martha Bauer , M Bauer , M.K.Bauer , Crystal L Hampton , Crystal Hampton Do Not Rent To these people ( Mother / Daughter ) Rent Fraud , Lies , Cheats - Abandonment of rental Propertys and apartments Internet

Martha Bauer , ( mom ) and Crystal Lynn Hampton ( welz ) have ties from the areas of Satsuma , Middleburg , orlando , Greencove springs , polatka , winter springs florida areas .

They are known to flee ,abandon , and steal Items from rentals / if any are available to them , They Have periodic issues and they use fraud tactics to receive benefits from wherever they can , ( exhusbands included ) using children and their ailments as well ( 2 kids ) Steven / Treavor and the yunger has the Autisim .

Anyone can be fooled by them , a landlord or Employer as well . Recent employment (2012) was for an independent radio anouncer in orlando florida , ( Ray ) political news and comments ... ( probably screwed him outa cash too )

Promises are never made good , and they are the type people that anyone would or could feel bad for to do a favor or give a chance ( But dont fall prey ) they are believed to be sitting time out with Family in north florida for now ( and maybe crystal still with problems in seminole county with drug / alchol issues )

Martha gets  a possible pension check monthly and maybe SS ck , for cash along with child support as income ------ Beware of these two ...... or watch out if they go their own seperate way ..Soon ..... they may need a job or rental a place soon ....

Dear mr Buffalo , As everything you posted in response to the original Post , is correct technically you should hold judgement as you didn't get what the post was intended for !

First I'm not in the Landlord business ! yet !
And this / its not text book landlord 101 where it was just cut and dry , like that ! 
All the little details were not put up , Just the general info , so of course your assessment is quite off , due to lack of info ( not your fault ) but you should have read it a little closer and with an open mind ......

 There was a check done , of course , the results were definitely not perfect from what I understand , but not worthy of denial of a rental at that time this check was done , Positive referrals were received as well at that time also ( nothings ever perfect though , no guarantees).

Also I might add , that although you again were correct where you have the right to review applications prior to written lease agreement , there are very few with perfect credit and some criminal background checks are not 100 percent or up to Date either , depending where you are looking.

So I dont think a sucessfull business venture in the landlord area would be to look for someone with perfect credit , in todays economy especially ,  everyone has some sort of bad credit mark or negative on them for some reason , especially if there still renting in that age bracket ( nature of the landlord business ) many renters have also been forced into situation , out of their control ( employers close down out of business , down size ,etc .( some good reliable and responsible people too.) Unfortunate !!!

You would be a poor landlord if you didn't rent your rental , and would be out of the landlord business for inability to rent your unit anyway if you only looked for the perfect renter ( it Dont exist ) everyone has an issue one time or another somewhere someway and thats what makes us all human ( Imperfect )  Landlord business or not !!!!

There are those with perfect credit somewhere , but not here ! And As in any business there are risks , and sometimes you do well and other times not so well with regard to choice and risk , but if you wait for the perfect renter you would have empty units more often than not and be out of business anyway !

I also agree that landlords are not in the loan business , but have to disagree where you claim you cannot be a personable landlord / friend - as has been my personal experience with my landlords , they have been mostly caring and understanding , and that also helped their landlord business going forward.
As I personally would not ever intentionally cheat landlords , or anyone  , we have been lucky to have had each other in those certain times , and  others feel the same , I have in the past  found that a few individuals needed assistance to get on their feet ( loan ) and the Landlord ( took a chance of course ) Made a business decision / risk as in any other , maybe its not written in the landlord handbook , and shouldn't be done  , to stay away from being  ("ripe for the picking") 
But it seemed to make his profession of landlord more sucessfull in ( his ) personal landlord business.

Siblings of past renters would then be sent to rent from him with the positive mentions he was an understanding person / and personable businessman and landlord.
Also the assistance I provided in doing certain repairs were appreciated from his end as well , as I'm sure thats a no no in the landlord book of wrongs as well , but worked out well in my experience ....
Not to say you are incorrect in your statements , but to each there own , just there are other ways than just  , hardcore as you put it ! Although some may only understand threats , and Hard core landlord I guess . I know a few Judges who would put it that way as well ...
Personally I would rather , it be Just the way you put it ( cut and Dry ) but it doesn't ever seem to work out either way ,100 percent . so be as it may .....

There are other landlords who pay , for this info , on other web sites , and if they check will also find the two named above listed at some point as poor tenants , and their credit will be tarnished as well But its also listed here , now !!!!  so everyone  , Landlord and tenant ,business , friend Neighbor , and you too Buffalo alike can also see and share the information.
 
Not every landlord is a pro , and although you can say "get out of the business of landlord " to most , some are just passing time and renting their home , unit , property for a while till when they decide to sell or live in it later on ( Many reasons ) some dont even know how to review or get background checks ,  they may not be able to afford costs affiliated with all that legal judgement and claim stuff , eviction process ,  etc.. ( I'm Just saying )  But their services are well appreciated offering their rentals to needy families and is commendible to that point. 

But I have found it comforting to be able to inform the public of yet another fraud that may be avoided or caught in time that others are not hurt.
That was the Intent of the post , and your landlord words of wisdom are posted and observed as well. 
Very direct and informative to prospective landlords , Me I wouldn't mind the landlord business , I figure there are probably more good apples than bad but sometimes there is just no avoiding the worm , unless you just dont eat the apple ....No risk no gain no loss ! 

I suggest you get out of the landlord business.  That's right, it's a business and it doesn't appear to me that you're suitable for it.

The tenant/landlord relationship is a business relationship-not a personal relationship.  The landlord provides a safe, habitable residence and the tenant pays rent.  Anything beyond this is a poor business practice that leaves the landlord ripe for the plucking.  A landlord is not a social services agency.

No landlord should ever give loans to a tenant-you're a landlord, not a money lender.  Additionally, a landlord needs to perform tenant screening (credit and criminal checks) before offering a written lease.  If a prospective tenant has recent credit issues or criminal convictions, choose another prospective tenant.
