On the fence about the background check results
I got the results back from a tenant background check. She is 28. Credit is perfect, but she's got four criminal results. 2 are from 6 years ago (marijuana/traffic), 1 is four years ago for $1,000 of property destruction, and 1 was last year for an "infraction". None of them led to conviction or even probation. It appears all charges were dropped. Also, I did meet/interview her face to face and she was lovely. The results are bothering me, but it could be because I have a clean criminal record and I guess I expect others to be clean as well. Honestly, I do feel like I'm being judgmental. My question is, regarding criminal background what's average for a good tenant?
