Credit, criminal, sexual offender list.  

@Craig HormesI have had several Section 8 tenants over the years and have learned a few things.My properties are always really nice so I expect them to be taken care of.I always pull a background check, including criminal and evictions and call all references, just as I would with any tenant.

@Dashiel C Neimark Washington State is tenant friendly in general, but most of the more onerous regulations you hear of (RRIO registration, no criminal background checks involved, first-come-first-served rental applications) are Seattle city regulations.

If you screen properly ...good credit, job, criminal background etc then most of the time you won’t have issues.

It's borderline criminal what the government does to push college and student loans onto young adults when they get out of high school.

That's not a true criminal offense. 

No offence but have you actually worked for or with a PE company?

There are too many innocent deaths from criminals of this nature. 

Past evictions, significant/recent criminal history, etc will be grounds for denial. 

Basically, criminals don't follow laws/rules.
