State of Ohio, Tenant did not disclose they were a sex offender
I just signed a lease with a tenant on June 15th, 2023. I ran a background check and something did show up but showed (N/A) on the background check. I asked the applicant and they said it was nothing and got dismissed. He must have just finished processing his paper work and all of the cards got sent out. I have received multiple complaints from neighbors. I will be contacting a lawyer but was not sure if anyone has any experience on handling this type of thing or not. The house is not near a school or park so he is in compliance with the Law ,but he did not disclose that information to me. Is this something I can evict him for ? To clarify there are two instances, one of was with a "minor" she was 15 but had a Fake ID, saying she was 19 the court case verifies this information he was 21. The other was he was pimping out 3 women and that was 8 years ago. He is 36 and has a wife and 4 kids now.
