Tenant eligibility regarding past eviction

[Mahmuda L.]

My manager is asking if I (landlord) will allow prospective tenants with no eviction in past 4 years. I was thinking no evictions at all. But what's the acceptable and more common practice here? From a simple online search, it looks like background check goes 10 years back, so having no eviction is past 10 years is also acceptable right? I am trying to gauge what's the usual practice among the landlords here. Thanks!

If I learn someone has been evicted they will not be considered period. Four years in nothing; evictions are a serious business!
