I would never, ever rent to a co-worker again. I rented my apartment to two of them (a couple) for several months last year. Things got really, really nasty. They brought 3 cars with them (I thought they only had two, naturally) and blocked up my driveway, they let their dogs poop all over my yard and they never scooped, they filled up the trash can within a day and left no space for my garbage, they smoked indoors even though it was understood that they were not to do so, and they left without giving notice because they felt they didn't have to let me know. When I went in to clean there was cat pee all over the floor and rotting food in the fridge. I still have to work with the wife, but thankfully the husband found himself another job about a year ago. It was quite uncomfortable at work for a long time, since I had to work closely with both of them. I wouldn't do it, and - I know this sounds a little paranoid - IF there's some sort of dispute, I'd worry about the tenant trying to bring personal matters to work and causing difficulties there. My co-workers did it to me.
