If other tenants are not complaining, what is your motivation for this course of action?

@John Cooper when you or someone you care about is living in the home it is important to be extra vigilant in choosing tenants.

If you can tolerate it, go for the extra roommate.

I myself am a second generation Mexican and have been motivated to learning as much as I can about real estate by reading books, forums, and listening to podcasts such as the one you were featured on.
