Renting to sex offender
I am in the process of screening a potential tenant, he told me he had a felony from 15 years, he offered to explain but I didn't wanna push unless necessary. After doing a background check on him I found out he is registered as a sex offender for "lewd conduct with a minor."
My question is, he's been clean for the past 15 years no criminal record before or after that incident, has now a fiance and has been living with her and her 2 children for the past 5 years, has a good income and good credit. I know it's a very personal question, but would you rent to someone like that?

I’d take him. I have a sex offender and he’s been my best tenant. I’ve taken in people with felonies and prison time as well and they’ve been excellent. I don’t rule out anyone. Their job history tells me a lot.
