Was a criminal background check done?

You can find every criminal offense all the way down to minor traffic violations.

I’ve seen that service advertised for $400 and up, which is nuts, considering, in the case of a lease-option, it doesn’t include the criminal background check, eviction check, previous landlord checks, visit to current rental, and probably not the employment verification a smart landlord does.

There's no special process for criminals, the missing or the deceased.  

We would meet the requirements of having the funds, no criminal background :), and we are renting on the west side of Indy very close to Speedway.We have a passion for real estate and really want to learn about home repairs.

I am buying the property at wholesale price with a lot of room for appreciation - the only drawback is that the property is currently leased until December 2016 - for a criminal $300 under market value.  

Some people wish they did, but unless you're in Ohio, they don't care.Some of the advice on BP comes from people that HATE wholesaling, so they will over-exaggerate the risks of doing it, tell you it's illegal, and make you think you're setting up a criminal enterprise.  

No criminals or evictions.Person B785 credit score. 5x rent i income.

It’s usually the other way around.But of course we all know the reason they don’t want to use the middle man is because they have a credit score that’s crap, a criminal rap sheet about as long as a BPpodcast, and a shaky stream of income that we don't even want to know where it comes from.

My background is in Marketing and Sales, however, my formal education is in Criminal Justice and Police Training.
