New Tenant Screening
I received an application through Zillow of a potential tenant for my first rental property. The applicant completed the credit and background check through Zillow. The background check didn't show anything concerning but the credit check showed a credit score of 523. Her income is 3x the monthly rent. I sent the applicant an additional form to fill out for more information. She stated that she owns a home but recently gave it to her children and grandchildren to live in with her most recent rental history claiming to be from 2017-2018. She did provide me with the property management company she rented from though.
Does anyone have any thoughts on this applicant or any recommendations for me?
