April 4, 2017 - January 23, 2018


Buffalo Niagara SCORE launched our 30-minute radio show on WUFO MIX 1080AM & Power 96.5FM. The show aired every Tuesday from 10:30 am to 11:00 am. Our guests were community leaders, business owners, and SCORE volunteers. We discussed topics to help people start and grow their business. I was one of the main hosts. We discontinued the show due to lack of sponsors. We hope to use our recordings to create a future podcast show.

The main factors to look at when choosing tenants are: Credit Score, Eviction History, Background Check, Landlord & Employer References, and Income-to-Rent Ratio (3x) . You need to let the prospective tenant know that you will not be selecting their application by sending them an adverse action letter .
