A person of foreign origin is visiting US for six months and is eager to rent my property. Should I sign a rental lease with a foreigner? If he breaks the lease and leave the country will it be easy for me to pursue him to his home country for my unpaid rent and other damages, if any?

Editor's Response
I would never suggest that anyone should discriminate against applicants from other countries. But to answer you question directly, it is hard enough (expensive and time consuming) trying to collect a judgment from someone who lives in your town. Trying to collect from a person who has moved to another country would be prohibitively expensive and extremely difficult.
