But in this day and age........ If a prospect does not pay their bills, what chance do you have of them to paying their rent?

To be honest, I don't agree with the credit report being so important.
People who get in trouble with finances and don't pay some things may well pay the rent. Most people know that not paying the MasterCard won't get you evicted.
As long as they don't have a history of destruction, and eviction, more than one eviction, I'd be likely to give them a chance. But I tend to be too trusting.

The people never give up their liberties but under some delusion.- Edmund Burke.

In renting a property I believe some important considerations are:
Rental history, employment history, background check & most important credit rating.

I kid you not, in Seattle that is considered not fair.
I am not up to snuff on all the criteria, but to use the "past" to judge is considered discriminatory.
They are presently pushing a "the first to apply" gets it.
Here is a link/article: https://www.seattletimes.com/seattle-news/politics/a-primer-on-seattles-new-f...

“…Before accepting a prospective renter’s application materials, a landlord will need to provide the renter with information on the landlord’s minimum screening criteria…”

Not a problem. Just be clear enough in the, ’screening’.

But the, REAL Reason the Snowflake, Fairy Dust Sprinklers are wanting to do this, Is NOT, to ‘help those poor people’.
(Which they, ’think’, other Snowflake, Fairy Dust Sprinklers believe)

The, REAL Reason is:
“ … it will need to add two staffers to handle work related to the first-come, first-served policy — to the tune of more than $200,000 next year…”.

Ben Franklin once said: "If you give up a freedom, for the sake of security, you will have neither".
Which is More TRUE, today, than yesterday.('06, S-40, Stock) well, mostly .
