Married tenants 1 bad credit, 1 good credit, 1 income

Alicia Ro
Posted

Evaluating potential tenants who were upfront with us about their situation. One is the breadwinner but has terrible credit due to poor entrepreneurship decisions when younger, the other is a stay at home parent with no income but good credit (mid-600s).

How would you evaluate this? Usually, it's one person that has the positives and you can evaluate that one. But here it's split. Rest of financial and background check seemed fine, will do more detailed employment and landlord checks. 

Help! Thank you!

@Alicia Ro

They were willing to do a credit check and upfront; if they make 3.5x monthly rent yes
