Would you rent a house to 2 new university grads?
Hi everyone.
I have a townhouse which I prefer to rent to families. However, 2 recent university grads (both female) want to rent it together. Would you rent it to them? Some potential problems in my opinion:
- 2 tenants on the lease which complicates the agreement
- May have overnight guests whom I would not want to stay
- May sub-lease the extra bedroom to people who I do not approve of
- If only one moves out, I cannot rent the whole house to a family. Finding individual tenants to fill each bedroom seems like a lot of work
- May have parties
What do you think?
Cheers,
Paul
