Bogus prospective tenant

I'm renting new condos and a lady comes by for a showing, and asks for an application. Before I even send her an application, from a simple search, I see she has 2 prior bankruptcies and is currently in another bankruptcy. The nerve of some people makes me shake my head. Wasting my time. 

You guys have any stories of shady applicants?

Yeah you should have picked up on that during the pre screening  call for the showing . Hit your major points over the phone so you can weed out the fools . Be sure your minimum requirements follow the fair housing act over the phone .
