Does the law say we must continue to rent to them until a conviction?

As far as his conviction you should probably read what actually happened.

The downside is you might need a conviction to use them and your 12 months will be up by then.

So, we obtain a full credit report and review collections, chargeoffs, age of credit accounts, active accounts, etc. to build an overall credit evaluation.Public RecordsWe also obtain data from national databases about evictions, convictions and sex-offender histories.

We tell them we specifically publish our criteria because we do not want people who don't meet it to apply.QUALIFIED APPLICANTS WILL- Have at least 3 times the rent in gross income and 2.5 times the rent in net income in verifiable, reliable income (exception Military with BAH or HUD voucher)- Have no more than 2 occupants/bedroom- Not owe any money to a previous landlord- Not have any recent evictions- Have no aggressive breed animal- Not have any unpaid utilities or car payments reported on the credit report or court records- Not have been convicted of any crimes against people or property- Not have been convicted of any drug manufacturing or distribution charges

I suspect it has to do with the fact that if you are living on premises then they actually do feel that you and your other tenants should feel safer because of imminent and immediate perceived danger to the person who as a financial stake at the dwelling. you have a higher likelihood of getting  "beat up" by the convicted felon that is living on premises and if you are the breadwinner/property manager/owner/money machine that keeps everything operating you have a higher likelihood of this happening if you live there and they certainly don't want to mess that up.Follow the money.....look real close and it seems like it is geared more toward the "corporate" folks that own a series of large commercial buildings.

Always go with your moral convictions.....Pray, wait for the answer and follow the divine guidance

Account ClosedHats off on staying true to your conviction. 

Are they asking for minimum credit scores and no convictions or evictions ever?

Mostly convicts, people getting out of halfway houses, section 8 etc.
