Would you buy from a seller with a criminal record?

Hi Everyone,

I am negotiating with a seller on a property and upon doing some research found out that the seller had a substantial criminal record. Would you back out of negotiations or continue regardless of that? 

Thanks for your input!

Best,

Dave

I wouldn't let that affect my decision at all.  Who cares?  After the sale, you won't have anything else to do with him.
