I also check the court records (civil, criminal & traffic) myself, just in case something was missed.  

We require any tenant 18 or older to qualify for whole rent on their own unless they are a legal dependent (spouse, college student, dependent parent, etc) of applicant, even then must pass criminal background check.

I will check internally on this.

If you're financing from abroad, look into international lenders or local banks that work with overseas investors.

Oh, some CRMs say they have internal lead lists,  vacant or absentee list.

The trend in larger cities has been for less police and more leniency with criminals.

I have transacted at least 5000 properties as a flipper developer and lender and I have had one instance of this. were someone recorded a mortgage 5 minutes before my loan went on record so when I got my title policy I was in second instead of first made a claim to my title insurer and they rectified it quickly and went after the bad guy criminally. 

For example, I mention that every adult must pay a $30 application fee, pass my credit/criminal background, make a combined income of 3x the rent, and whether or not the property accepts pets.
