I had to do an eviction on a female my parents had helped out by allowing them to move into their unused 2nd story.

If they have low credit and no reserves, I’d only rent to them if there are two or more working adults in the home.

We each have to make that decision for ourselves as adults. 

I have been working in analytical fields for all of my adult live (pension actuarial student and IT/management consultant), and am looking at other ways of providing residual income for myself and my family.Thank you for taking the time to read my introduction.

As we get more questions about service dogs vs emotional support animals, it strikes me that if the adult who is viewing the house had a true service dog, that do should be with them when they were viewing the house, right?

I personally do not as an Adult, though I was raised as a Catholic. 

@Anthony Rosa yes, of course the kids would be on the application (if it went that far), but the OP has a track record of posting information about female prospects and seems to have information and conclusions that could only come from asking questions that are discriminatory in nature. 

Maybe just rent to females? 

@Iaroslav Demydovych Without any additional background with evictions and similar type items, I would lean toward the single lady. 3 adult age children could turn that place into a frat house which would cause damage.

I'd change the no excessive late payments to no more than one late payment - otherwise, it's too subjective.You can add lots of other things like - smelling like smoke, rude behavior, unruly kids, bickering adults, adults yelling at kids, showing up with rude friends, filthy vehicle, having someone other than applicant who is doing all the talking, showing up late, sounding drunk when they leave a voicemail, not filling out application completely, asking for lots of changes like new carpet or paint (they'll be difficult to deal with), tenants who never ask where the laundry is or look to see how big the closets are or ask about parking (they are desperate to take anything), not bringing documents when they said they would -- the longer the legal list you have, the better.
