Sex Offender
I have a tenant applicant for my duplex unit that informed me that he is a registered sex offender. He says it is of the lesser variety 7 yrs. ago and it will be off his record after 10 yrs. I am not very up to date on this offense and what impact it has on renting to him.
Am I liable if there is a sex offense committed by this individual? Do I have to inform the neighborhood or will I have to inform the next door unit that I have rented to a sex offender? When I have to re-rent the next door unit will I have to inform them that there is a sex offender in that unit?
Does anyone have experience with this offense and perhaps accepting a sex offender as a tenant?
