House hacking tenant never home

Hi guys,

I am 2/3rds through my first month house hacking. It seems so far the tenant has spent only a few nights here, he spends an awful lot of time away from home. He has also been quite unresponsive to emails and hasn't signed up for erentpayment.com yet even though we agreed to it. 

Normally I wouldn't/don't care if he is away a lot and would say he is all the better tenant for it. He is very quiet and seems to keep the place fairly clean so far. There is a just a growing concern in the back of my head he doesn't like the place etc and/or is going to become late on payments. 

Do you guys think I should email him asking him if everything is ok(mentioning him being seldom home?)? - Or just leave it alone? - and how often should I remind him to sign up for erentpayment? I don't want to come off as a greedy landlord only concerned about my monthly check, I also want a happy tenant.
