Applications with Eviction on record

[Mike Most]

Hi,

I have recently purchased a nice few units in a Class C area and managing the properties on my own. While having a few vacant units I keep on receiving applications from tenants with a nice percentage of these applicants have in their record an eviction..

Question to everyone, Would you even entertain an application  with an eviction on their records if you own properties in lower income area's?

If the answer is yes, how would you protect yourself that this shouldn't happen again by you to having to evict them?
