Who rents to those with evictions?

It is not part of my business plan and nor do I plan on doing it.  That said, there must be someone out there making it a business out of renting to those with evictions.  I am constantly seeing people on craigslist or facebook housing sites looking for a place to live with an eviction (and often times multiple) on their record.  Where do they find housing?  Are they paying that much more to make it worth someone's while?  I can't even imagine this as they clearly are not paying normal rental rates.  Do they just try to find someone naive or someone they can sell their sob story to?

A lot of landlords don’t even check. They just want to fill the vacancy as quick as possible, not realizing that having a bad tenant is worse than having no tenant.
