research criminal history for possible roommate
Intellius is a well-known background check service, but I would also recommend that you run a credit check to anyone you decide to rent to. A good rule of thumb is also to request at least one reference from a place where they have previously rented so that you can find out if this is someone who is going to cause more trouble than their rent money is worth.
Make sure you get a decent security deposit (first and last month’s rent + security deposit is a general rule of thumb) and a really good contract that covers all your bases. You can get a basic template for free from Microsoft Word Templates or just do a Google search for free rental agreement templates.
