Filling Rental Vacancy

[Daren H.]

Assuming a tenant has been screened (e.g. income, credit, rental history, criminal background, deposits, etc.) and is deemed qualified per the respective rental criteria, is it common practice to ask a tenant to subject to an inspection of their current residence prior to final approval of application?

I would want to see how they are taking care of their current residence. That is an indication of how they would take care of the rental. Is this overboard or an accepted practice?
