I would recommend speaking with local school, church, and/or other trusted social organization to find a suitable match. My experience with this is that the recommendation of a trusted party goes a long way to helping find the right person. Also be sure to express the details of the arrangement clearly upfront. I would recommend from experience that you pay them for the service and charge rent. You can make it wash out but you have a clear path that way to know what happens when they fail to perform the duties which will likely happen from time to time (sick, vacation, etc.).
I’ve mostly housed people that are 18-20 yrs old and generally the arrangement is that they help around but also prove to be bettering themselves though school, job, wise finances, etc. I believe that this has been mutually beneficial almost always but I have had to dissolve the deal once.
