I'm looking to check credit, criminal history, and evictions.

Someone who didn't pay their bills yesterday won't pay them tomorrow, and someone with a criminal past is usually more trouble than they are worth.

If it was some criminal act, I'd want to see a police report.

Not only can you lose the note financially but there can be administrative actions with fines or even criminal charges.Due diligence is then required on the note seller and the purchase contract.

Never fail to check employment references and criminal background as well as if they have any evictions against them.

"knock on wood", none of our properties have been trashed since we started doing better background checks, including employment verification, criminal records and calling on references.

Thanks.By that I mean there are any number of other criminal activities that would generate more income than bandit signs.

We signed up with a company that includes: tenant screening (criminal check and credit check) online application process, and marketing, for a very nominal fee.

If you are criminally liable that may be a different issue.

Word got out and the criminals stayed away as they knew there was an incentive to turn them in.In Atlanta years ago there was illegal dumping of old tires in vacant multifamily buildings all across Atlanta.
