Would you rent to this tenant?

Hi all. So, I'm into all the details of acquiring and renovating properties and normally leave all the tenant screening management stuff to a management company. Currently my management company is asking if I want to rent to someone whose credit score is in the low 500s, which doesn't meet their criteria, but they otherwise look fine and have a guarantor with an excellent credit score. Would you do it? Bending rules has turned out to be a bad idea in the past but this one sounds like it might be ok--advice appreciated.
