A lot of the seller financed properties which fall into the category of private money are straight criminal.  

Obviously want to make sure there is no criminal history, evictions, etc. 

Look for steady W2 income, look for a clean criminal record, look for no court judgments, get input from the prior landlord, etc., etc., etc.These are human beings and they are living the human existence.  

We are so smart in our country with our criminal justice system, aren't we? 

For instance, landlords should perform background/credit/criminal checks on all prospective tenants.  

Take this linked story out of Nashville where the focus has become that these criminals were using AirBnB to rent.  

Maybe inform her of local laws that could make her both civilly and criminally liable if her dog gets out or if her dog bites someone. 

I had the couple fill out an application and used TU mysmartmove (for the first time-- I usually use another service) to run their credit, criminal and eviction reports.

@Chris Mason it's just strange to me that he said that, I guess he said he couldn't do the refinance and the new MFH mortgage.If it's legal to do what I am trying to do then why is he concerned like I'm being a criminal?

That is, the PM will advertise, run the various checks for credit, evictions, criminal, ability to pay, etc but ultimately they'll recommend a few applicants, I'll look at the documentation and pick one?
