Most students live off campus at D1’s school, so they have a dedicated off campus housing office. I was able to vet out the landlord through the school. They couldn’t make any recommendations, but when I asked, “Is X a good landlord? Is it a good building?” The office was able to say yes or no. I found them to be very helpful and they thought it was the right thing for parents to be involved. They actually suggested for me to have a side agreement with the roommate’s parents in case they were jointly responsible for the lease.
