Renter qualifications not all there
Hello,
A divorcee stay at home mom of 3 wants to rent my unit in IL. Divorce is not yet finalized.
She is a part time teacher and does not have the needed income
credit score 740.
She has 240,000 in bank. Willing to pay 3 months up front. Will be custodial parent (at least she says) so will be expecting alimony/child suppport.
do I have a right inclination to be second guessing this?
I could just ask for a co-signer too maybe.
rent is only 2100 so not like it would eat up a savings very fast.

You are right to be second guessing.........Is the 240 real? Where did it come from? How long has it been there? Part time teacher is zero.
