@Steve K. they didn't even spell "discriminate" right, so that right there.....

@James Hamling Whatever their motive was to ask me that, I don't know. I'm sure this won't be the only time I get asked a question like this. 

@Account Closed Thank you. 

@Bjorn Ahlblad That does make a lot of sense. 

Thank you @Joe Splitrock. All good stuff.

Thanks, @Matt Ziegler

Thanks, @Russell Brazil

@Kyle J. Thanks for the info. I read other descriptions in the area and none of them mention anything other than what my criteria was as well. So I'm wondering if this person is asking them all the same thing. Again, it's my first time that I have been asked. 

An applicant contacted me on marketplace and asked me "So use discrimate against ex ex felons". They asked to come see the place and I said, as long as you meet the requirements we can move forward. They then proceeded to ask me that. The initial requirements are a favorable credit score, income 3 x the rent, and the last two check stubs. I replied that the application would be reviewed fairly and accordingly. It did catch me off guard. I had never been asked that before.

Still no luck with finding a tenant with good credit for my unit. I require 600 credit score but am about to change it to 575. It's a good neighborhood. I just don't understand how 600 is high. I've looked online and that's the minimum in a lot of examples. Am I allowed to say the rent to income ratio must be three x the monthly rent?
