How to ensure tenants are current with rent; New Invester

[Eric McCarty]

I am about to pull the trigger on my first multi-family cash flowing property.  The property is located in New York State and I am nervous due to the moratorium extension through May 1, 2021.  The seller has verbally told me that all renters are up to date with rent.  How can I get better proof then just verbal communication through the seller?  If I was able to see receipts, or bank statements showing that they paid I think I would feel better.  Am I reading too far into this?  Thank you!
