Post: Water Bill Question

I have a tenant about to move into a property I recently purchased. This is a condo so the water is sub metered and not done through the city. The water bill will be the tenants responsibility moving forward but unfortunately the water bill can not be switched into the tenants name since we are the owners. Any suggestions on an easy way to do this so the tenant can easily pay it each month?

We had an applicants background check come back with 3 records labeled as "CRIMINAL/TRAFFIC." To my knowledge these types of violations only show on a background check if they are misdemeanors or felonies. Applicant says they are just speeding tickets and seat belt violations. Any advice on how to get more info on these?

Do all tenants going on the lease need apply and meet qualification standards?

@Thomas S. Thanks for the feedback. So what if I just required deposit, first and last months rent? Is my only recourse eviction if they didn't pay anything after three months?

@Sam Trentwood she is a chemist and I doubt in this area she will have a problem finding a job. She has provided bank statements and and 401k statements

@Michael Noto both of their credit looked good. The partner who is a disabled vet receives 3x the monthly rent each month. They've also provide bank statements showing they can cover the rent well over the potential year lease

@Mike Cumbie same here. I'm also an agent and I just closed on one with a buyer and they had just seen it over FaceTime. I did require them to sign site unseen clause. I would definitely require that in this situation.
