You must look deeply into the company you lease IPs too. Have a contract - there is one on RentIPv4.com you can download, copy and modify. (I created it, I say you can do that if you need one.)
But the contract is a small part....Because companies come and go. You must be able to verify many things about the company - how long in business - explore previous IPs they utilized... what they plan to do with them, will thier customers spam with them, etc. If not you run a greater risk of getting back IPs that are on international black lists. Many of those will require you to pay a ransom fees to be removed blocks.
