Keep in mind that the onus for visit visas is not on the sponsor, but on the applicants.

You (the sponsor) should be able to show that you can accommodate them (without overcrowding) and that you can help them financially while they are here.

But the onus is on them to show that they can afford to come to the UK and that they have strong enough ties to their country of habitual residence that they will leave the UK within the timeframe that they state in the application (which can't be more than six months anyway).
