Need advice on choice of tenant
We have a townhouse for rent. Currently narrow down to 2 possible candidates. Rent is $2000 for the home.
(a) a single lady with excellent credit. full time working, income around $80k with one cat. Only met over zoom as she has not relocated here yet and is in the process of looking for housing. Not sure what it would be like when meeting in person.
(b) a young couple in mid-20s, wife with good credit ~660, husband at -630, he is honest of the mishap of credit at his early 20s. no kid, combined income $150k, both full time working, with one large dog Heeler 40lbs and one cat.
Any advice on how to make a choice? The couple in (b) looked lovely when meeting in person and seems really decent. Dog is said to be house trained and potty trained, anything else I may need to require them to show if I do want to go with (b)? Thanks for your insights!
Update: thank you all for the almost unanimous vote on (a), If I proceed the process with her, what other supporting documents I may require her to provide regarding the cat: proof of vaccination, and anything else that I may be missing here? Thanks! 😊
