@An Duong it's really up to you whether it's a good enough deal for you to agree to that.I will say, besides the two years of below-market rent, you should also factor the cost of an eviction into your thinking.It may not end with an eviction, and if it doesn't then you'll have saved some money, but I would go into it with the assumption you'll have to do one since I think there's a non-negligible chance of that.In a negotiation, sometimes it can be helpful to try to figure out the other person's motivations and find other ways to meet it.For example, if he's worried about being able to afford market rent, then if it's $200 below market a month, and you don't want to tie the unit up for a second year, maybe you offer to pay $2400 more at closing and only have him there for one year.If he really likes the area, maybe you find him an apartment in the area and offer to pay his security deposit, a moving company, and X months of rent to get him started.

Biggest question I'd ask is whether or not I could afford the additional payment without relying on income from the investment property.When looking at a potential investment property, look at best case, most likely, and worst case scenarios and decide what the probability of loss is.
