I have a potential tenant both are in mid 500 credit score, but they can pay 3 months deposit and 3 months advance. Should I accept this? Thanks Tony

No! That is a red flag.. it might be the only 3months they have because of tax Season. What type of job do they have? Why is the score so low? Were they unemployed for a low period of time? Don't think of the upfront money. Think about it in a long term sense. Tony Yi
