My husband and I am trying to rent a house from a private owner and I made the mistake of telling them that my husband travels to Cuba. The woman wanted to see his disability check stubs and I told her that I couldn't get them to her until he comes back because I don't know where he keeps them (true). Should I have done this? How many of you would rent your house to a couple where the man travels to Cuba (I told her this is his last trip because he's really not supposed to be traveling there--again stupid move).

I mean, I told her the truth (his dad moved there and my husband goes to visit). But, some people are paranoid and I can just see her mind working overtime on this. I think I should have kept my mouth shut.

If they really want to rent to us, I guess they will wait the two weeks until he is back to get the stubs. I really like the house; it's a cute house. Well, maybe it just wasn't meant to be :(
