Tenant Screening and background check issues
Hello, looking for some advice as a new property manager. I recently bought a duplex and I am in the process of finding a tenant for one of the units. Had a few showing the other day and I fond what I thought was a great match but I have some concerns. The prospect completed an application and checks the credit and income boxes but does have a mark on the criminal record. Looks like a disorderly conduct issue within the past year. This is the only mark. I have read mixed reviews as to what I can ask the prospect; if you have any advice it would be greatly appreciated!
