Call from insurance company wanting to place tenants

[Mike S.]

I just had an interesting call from an insurance company.  They have a couple displaced by a fire and want to pay their rent for a 9-month lease.  They are also going to pay a $200 a month premium.

The good of course is getting it rented with the premium.  The downside is that it will put me back into slow winter months looking for a tenant. Also, with spring coming, I may lose out on a longer term tenant.

Opinions on whether I should take these tenants( assuming regular qualifications are met)?  End of this month will be going on 2 months vacancy.
