Tenant Screening - Property Mgr says they owe back rent.

[Chris Wallace]

Just saw a major red flag when doing my due diligence on a prospective tenant. Did a rental verification and the landlord says they owe back rent. They list the reason for leaving as property needs major repair. No evictions or judgments came thru on the check I run with smartmove. 

They have good jobs as a public school employee and hr professional. Make 3 times the rent. No criminal background or activity.  

Smart Move recommends accept, what do you say?

[Phil Earley]

Owing past landlords money is an automatic denial.   There is a right way and wrong way to terminate a lease early.  It appears they chose the wrong way.....and history says they will do the same to you.
