I've got a couple decent candidates I'm considering, both with pros and cons...1st OPTION:Doctor + retired woman, both mid-60s, no kids, no pets~ 9x monthly rent in income2-year lease... potentially longer termGreat credit score-- However --Tax liens, bankruptcy, both have "messy" divorces in past couple yearsOnly been dating for about a yearDUI, expired plates, and another charge I'm looking into--2nd OPTION:Young couple, Dad + stay-at-home mom, baby, small dogRelocating from Texas~ 4x monthly rent in income1-year lease... almost guaranteed not longer than thatAlready had higher house payment in Texas, so rent would be cheaperExcellent credit scorePerfect background checkPerfect credit reportSo the question is, do you go with the older couple without the pet who's already interested in signing a 2-year lease and could potentially stay longer?
