So we definitely want those.You do need good credit, and we have a very stringent criminal fraudulent background check.  

I still think it's a good idea to offer wi fi as long as I include some sort of clause in the lease stating that my company is not responsible for any criminal activity that is done with it.

I'd love to hear from folks using online apps and having applicants pay for credit/criminal checks themselves.

And can be risky for buyers who try to scale this and do not have SUBSTANTIAL cash reserves.buyer starts defaulting on these and does not have the protections you put in place for the sellers.. the SEllers get very mad and start filing complaints of a criminal nature.. many SUB TOO equity skimmers have found themselves in deep trouble and in Jail ( where they belong).I rescued a company in Oregon that did about 35 of these.

Whatever you do, make sure you run a full screening package (credit, criminal, and eviction) on all applicants as well as an address history report to check their past landlord references.

My advice is a) screen tenants thoroughly with full credit, criminal, and eviction searches, and b) if you do have to handle an eviction, have an eviction pro do it so it happens as quickly as possible.  

I would still recommend running credit, criminal and eviction and being specific about your screening criteria.  

No criminal record or evictions.  

You need to run criminal background checks, you need to "attempt" to get names of all the people that will be staying in the house (good luck with that!)

After further consideration, I was pleased to remember that this is a forum for rational and responsible people, not those it-should-be-illegal-to-offend-me folks.My "crime free" lease addendum includes provisions allowing an eviction over suspicion of criminal activity, so I agree with @Chase Gochnauerthat the intent is to deal with disturbances, not provide for a penalty.
