You need to:Assess their ABILITY to pay the rentAssess their WANTINGNESS to pay the rentAssess their CHARACTER or chances of them honoring your rules stated on the leaseTo assess their ABILITY to pay the rent, you need to verify their income (so get a copy of 3 months' paystubs) and their employment.To assess their WANTINGNESS to pay the rent, you can check their credit if they pay their bills on time.

I also happen to love the old character in these houses..The high city tax definitely is a set back.

Commercial development within the village center in the NS district should be compatible in scale, character and intensity with the surrounding residential neighborhoods."

@Joe AridaThe way you close will not change the character of the business/income.It looks like you are wholesaling - correct me if I am wrong.

Lots of well-meaning, honest agents out there (and of course a few who aren't), but to find good character combined with lots of practical expertise and knowhow is much harder - including plenty of agents who are happy to tell you how many decades they've been in the business.
