Tenant screening questionnaire?

[William Hochstedler]

Does anyone use or has anyone considered a tenant questionnaire much like an employee questionnaire?  (Random internet sample)

I have had tenants making ten times rent who have trashed the place and I have had very marginal tenants who have been among my best.

I am moving into a market where much of the tenant pool will be marginal and am considering ways from distinguishing the good from the bad when they all have low income and limited credit history.

Landlords have suggested looking at how they keep their car, or asking "Do you consider not paying rent stealing?".  I think a questionnaire that gets at their moral compass might be a very interesting tool.

Thoughts?  Question ideas?

Thanks.
