This started as a small grass roots movement that has quickly escalated and now has the support of Kansas City's new Mayor, Quinten Lucas, as well as the majority of the City Council.If this proposal is allowed to continue as proposed you will no longer be able to take the following information into consideration when screening tenants.Source of IncomeNo criminal background checksNo credit checksCan not take previous eviction history into considerationMust work with Section 8, Housing Voucher ProgramsIn additional to these restrictions, we would also see the creation of a fourth city bureaucracy to oversee rental properties (in addition to codes department, Healthy Homes, and Human Relations/Fair Housing)What do you guys think?

The local criminals caught on and it has been horrible since.

Well I'm 26 and have my BA in criminal justice.

You want to set your criteria based on things like "no criminal history", "credit score above X".  

When it comes to renters I am more concerned with employment history, criminal records and evictions.  

I can't find anyone that will pass the screening (too many criminals and evictees).

No offence as I'm from IN originally.  

(Or more likely settle the suit) if you are negligent or criminal you would probably be personally liable anyway.

On the flip side given how sub to has been mass marketed through the guru / trainer folks you are going to have a lot of the buyers who are NOT properly capitalized  who dont understand how to do these correctly or are just plain crooks and when things dont work out they walk or even worse realize they can just rip rents and not pay on the mortgage this was very common back in the mid 2000s  I got a few interviews with the FBI chasing down folks that did this 20 30 50 times they were criminal enterprises and they ended up in prison..

Title company went for criminal charges not sure what the out come was .. but this stuff has been going on for 100 years.
