Rental Applicant Going Through Divorce a Negative?

[Brian Kraft]

Hello! I have a few fairly solid applicants for one of my units, but one I'm slightly leaning towards. However, she said she's going through a divorce (it would just be her renting) and I started to wonder if that could complicate her financial future, if it's not already complicated. I've actually gotten divorced (then re-married!) myself, but we were quite easily able to split things between the two of us, with no issues at all. Therefore, I don't have an understanding of how the money aspect of it goes, when there's a battle (which she did mention vaguely in passing)--specifically in Colorado. 

Should it be of any concern to me? Or does it really depend on the intricacies of their situation? She was very open and friendly and I would guess--open to filling me in on some details, if I were to ask-- but I'm not even sure if that's appropriate to ask. I mean-- I thought it was, but when I mentioned it to my wife, she thought it might not be appropriate. Guide me, BP, guide me.
