The longer term tenant willing to occupy the premises for at least two (2+) years or more is the better choice for the financial management of the property. The tenant best able to keep the property in excellent condition (most experienced renter or previous property owner) is the better choice for the maintenance management of the property. Do not make any assumptions or projections without reason about any potential tenant problems.

Re-confirm the personal identification to ensure that the prospective tenant(s) interviewed are, in fact, the actual person(s). Driver’s licenses can be forged.
Re-verify the employment references in writing to ensure that the prospective tenant(s) are not slated for pending layoff.
Re-verify the landlord references against the county property records to confirm that the landlord reference provided is the actual property owner (and not a relative).
Request several personal references to see whether the prospective provide their clergy of ten years or their neighbor of five months.
