How to have a business sign a residential lease

[Frank Rizzo]

Hi, 

I found a potential tenant who has an arrangement with their employer that the company will pay his rent as part of his compensation package. I spoke to the owner, he is willing to have the company co-sign to make sure they are on the hook for the rent. But, Just because there is an LLC doesn't mean they pay their bills. My question is, how do i qualify the company and prove they are trustworthy. Also, who should be on the lease, both the business and the tenant? any advice on how to structure this?
