There is now way to guarantee it IMO. We moved out of our house (which we had just finished building just the way we wanted) because DH got transfered with work. The tenants we got looked perfect on paper and turned out to be the biggest pains in the bottom. Complained about everything possible. At least each fortnight we would get a maintenance request and it was a almost new home and they even took us to the rental commission because we terminated the lease at the end of the rental period because we wanted to move back in (grrrr).

What I'm getting at is that the best thing you can do is get really good insurance and a good agent who you can trust.
