I think you have received more than enough experienced advice on YT. I researched and interviewed for over a year before I selected the breeder for my lovebug, Dori. I visited several times, published lists of questions and took a friend to each visit. The breeder, in turn, required a 3 page questionnaire to determine if I was the best match for Dori. This is, at least, a 15 year commitment. Do not skimp on your research. Back away if any of the red flags mentioned arise. Even if you lose a deposit, you may be saving yourself years of heartache and expense.
