I don't think asking for the address and doing a drive-by is all that uncommon. I've frequently shown houses to potential renters or their friends who live down here. It just gives renters one less worry -- they know the house is as advertised. (I have heard from more than one renter that the ad pictures were several years old and the house they rented had been awful, so they prefer to see the home first.)
