Checking a new roommate's background – better safe than sorry?
Hey everyone! I’m in a bit of a dilemma. I’m currently looking for a new roommate to share my apartment in Chicago because the rent just keeps climbing. I found someone who seems really chill and friendly, but since we’d be sharing a living space and I’m often away for work, I can't help but feel a bit nervous. You hear so many crazy stories these days, right? I want to make sure they don't have a hidden criminal past or a history of being evicted. Is there a way to do a free people search that actually provides real info? I’m looking for a people search free tool that doesn't just show me their name (which I already know) but actually gives some background data. I don't want to pay for those "premium reports" if I can find a best free people search site that pulls from public records. Any suggestions on how to vet someone without making it awkward?
