You don't "have" to do anything. The actual question is what are the up and downsides of any decisions you might make.

Your information is too scant to see what relevance there might be between leasing information and child abuse allegations, for example. And much can be found out with or without your cooperation, so it seems rational to see if there is any good reason not to tell them whatever it is they want to know. If you don't care, it may not be worth fighting about.

As to child access, you, your ex, and the kids all have rights, and those are balanced one against the other. Whenever there are abuse allegations, it is usually a good idea to get some solid legal advice based on the particular facts and circumstances.
