who to rent to? 2 possible choices
SO I have 2 possible tenants to rent to. Both have done background checks, both came back clean for no evictions, criminal background, credit scores good. Tenant 1) A couple who are 25 years old with a 50 pound husky mix dog. Both have decent jobs, looking to stay 1-2 years. I am only hesitant because of dog. For damage reasons, and because I live downstairs and have 2 very young kids. Tenant 2.) Two 22 year old recent college grads - both girls. One has 2 part time jobs, one not working while doing her masters but has money saved but both seem very confident to pay rent. They seem responsible for their ages.
So tenant 1: more stable careers, but a dog
tenant 2: not as stable careers - no dog
What do you think I should do?
