Are there any circumstances you would rent to someone with an eviction?

[Kyle Meyers]

I have had several prospects call and let me know up front they have an eviction on their record. Is there any time that you would accept them. I have been asking them the reason and letting them know I would see if I can get it approved. One prospect told me their eviction was for leaving before the end of their lease because they needed to move to help a family member. I think I would be willing to accept that reasoning, but I don't know how I would verify that story. Any thoughts would be greatly appreciated.
