Tenant wants to add boyfriend - as sublet
What should I do.
Tenant so far has been very good.
She just recently asked me about adding her boyfriend. She is a single mom recently divorced past 2 years with 3 kids and has a good job and is a quality tenant so far.
She asked if she could move her boyfriend in. I had him fill out an application and do a credit report. He has awful credit and I can't verify his recent rental history seems sketchy self employed past 8 years not verifiable. Past child support arrears on credit bankruptcy under 550 score.
I would not rent to him.
What do I do.
She wants to remain primary responsible for rent.
Do I ad an addendum that he is allowed to reside there not liable for rent.
I would not rent to him.

If she's been good thus far and will still be responsible for rent then I don't see the problem. I'd still make him a responsible party.
