I hope you haven't taken anything I've said as offensive.

And if there was an issue that came to light that could severely impact your reputation.Not that there's any acceptable reason to be on a sex offender registry, but what exactly was the offense and how long ago?

agreed screening are one tool to REDUCE turn overI would call the employer, their second-landlord, criminal bg check.

From that last link: "Look at the risks the owners take to collect illegal rent: civil and criminal charges in the event of death, that certainly means possible incarceration; no insurance coverage because of misrepresentation to the insurance company and income tax evasion charges from the IRS and [state] taxing authorities.

Hi @Jonathan KlemmThe new law will allow many criminals to walk out of jail on January 1st and will eliminate cash bail for non violent crimes.

One of the hottest class action suits - and growing - is against landlords who refuse to rent to those with a criminal background.

Leave a voicemail that tells them what your rental criteria is (income, credit, pets or no pets, etc.) and that you require a full credit/criminal on every adult at a cost of $XX per person.

Depending on the state, this is either a misdemeanor or a felony... and the misdemeanor states scale to a felony offense after the first incident. 

No offense, but they are typically low-quality renters making low wages and low standards.

For screening, some things your should make sure to stringently check are credit history, rental history, income/employment verification and a criminal background check.
