Lifemoves.org in San Jose - has anyone ever rented to someone who's part of this?

Jason Chung
Posted

Title says it all. I have someone who reached out from livesmoves.org with a client  who is employed, but is currently living in a homeless shelter, and the past residence he was not named on the lease (i.e. it was on his ex-gfs), and has a credit score <450.

Lifemoves.org will cover 100% for the 1st 3 months, 75% months 3-6, 50% months 6-10, 25%, months 10-12 and provide their client with personal finance support, i.e. budgeting.

Should I even consider them?

I believe in 2nd chances, but at the same time all the mechanisms I use to vet a tenant don't apply here (i.e. I can't call past residences to see if they paid on time or if their were problems), and credit score is a red flag.

Thoughts?
