So I get this referral from a relative about a tenant who has good credit score, no criminal history, and a good paying job.

We are fair housing compliant regarding animals.Our tenants’ safety and the peaceful enjoyment of their home is important to us, so we do a credit/criminal background check on all applicants aged 18+, as well as employment and prior landlord verifications.

In other words, if there are attorneys who can afford to specialize in just prosecuting dog owners for dog bites - then good luck defending against them.What I learned when I was studying law, was that if there is any history whatsoever that a dog has ever bitten someone or a dog before, then no matter the circumstances, if they bite again - they are automatically guilty.And, even as a dog lover, you and I both know that some breeds are more likely to bite than others.  

There is a ton of risk for the seller as we know in these deals and there are bad actors in these deals as well.. ran into many of them buy sub to never pay of the mortgage rip the rents and down the road..some off those folks got criminally charged and got prison time..

well as I posted last week Oregon is now going to require wholesalers to be licensed they have carved out a special license for this activity.. those wishing to continue to wholesale will need to do full criminal and get a bond.. some will not qualify as they have bad backgrounds or crappy credit.

Have a clean criminal history (excludes minor misdemeanors and traffic violations).6.

Sub-To is for criminals and slimeballs.

Their character, their payment record, how well they take care of you property, etc all these things are for you to discover with your tenants and build trust between each other. 2. when it comes to screening, you must check their credit, their paystubs, their employer and landlord references, their criminal background, I also get a copy of everyone's photo ID.3.

You screen LTR for their financials, eviction, and criminal history. 

While you can have a checklist of income, credit score, criminal background, landlord reference, etc, to me the bigger tell of good versus less than good tenants came from all the interactions prior to leasing.
