Many landlords will rent to someone with a felony DUI but will not for other offenses. 

No offense intended or directed toward anybody who has made such suggestions or offers already - I am simply warning the OP to be on his toes, and really explore and investigate any opportunity that anybody presents.

most people like this have had several last chances....you're just the next sucker landlord....please dont' take offense- i've been a nice guy sucker also...it's something we all have to learn from so we can be fair and 'by the book' with the rest

I have an applicant, and I explained to her that credit is not focused on, but rental history and criminal background are what we are concerned about (and this is stated on our Qualif.

I will likely reject my applicant but have a question about what constitutes a "credit report" and therefore, the necessity of writing a rejection letter.I ran an eviction check and criminal background check and found an eviction.

No offense, but seriously consider reading up a bunch more through the landlording section of this site.

Having AllState and State Farm agents may not be a good fit, having a trust/tax attorney and a criminal defense Attorney is a good fit.

But on the criminal there is a speeding ticket from ten years ago that lists a South Florida address that is not on the application.

I think there is precedent for believing your life is in danger if someone has broken into your house but you should check with a criminal or gun lawyer - Bruce Colodny is one local fellow.I am in Los Angeles - may I ask what areas you are looking into investing in?

Depot requires an ID even if you return with a receipt, which is garbage, as they compromised my information to a criminal recently... so I hate providing it to them.
