One of the questions is how long do sex offences disqualify an applicant.

@John Crawford DeBuys Freeman,They charge because they want to make sure they don't rent to sex offenders or people with felonies.. background checks cost $$$.

And you can point out that it is not technically a conviction; that is a consideration for fair housing laws.In my screening process, you do not have two or more criminal incidents, you are not a level 1 sex offender, and you are declaring rather than trying to hide the issue, so no lost points there. 

Crime, sex offender, traffic, how far away are the bad neighborhoods, is the quality improving or degrading?

You can also check the crime map, or the sex offenders registry, if there's a heavy amount of them it signifies low standards and a C-/D area.   

"Local Airbnb Turns Drug Den Sex Party!!"

She goes on to explain one brother is a level 1 sex offender because of trouble he got into at 18 and he is now 25.

She might be working in sex work or something and not want to endure the paperwork.Speaking of which, shouldn't the tenant do the credit check since they are extending credit to a landlord who might abuse the money and not keep up the place?

He's a controversial figure, but without his business model all those who were evicted, are registered sex offenders, or just generally gross would be homeless.
