How to deny two short term tenants

[Account Closed]

Hi Everyone,

We are renting to traveling nurses and I had two nurses apply for one unit. One application came back with an eviction, bankruptcy, late payments, and low credit score. The other came back with a low 600 credit score and everything else looks good.

Obviously we are denying them. My question is how should I handle denying them and giving the info out? Do I email them separately or together? Would I tell one person we are not accepting their application based on criteria not being met and then tell the eviction application we are denying her for that reason? Or would I send them both an email together saying the criteria wasn’t met?

Basically, I want to make sure I’m legally doing/saying everything correctly.

Traveling nurse rentals are somewhere in between Airbnb and long term renting and so I’m trying to figure out the middle ground here.

Thank you!
