Remove the front door.

I stole that from a previous thread, but think its a great idea.

At the end of the day it's going to really hurt those renters who have low credit scores or issues that would put them on the edge of qualifying for a property. I've been trying to be as diligent as possible on the pre-approvals. Forbearance would be my last option.

I also as a landlord have the ability to shutoff power to the property.


Lol, ugh no you don't...

The short term leases is a great idea but I don't think they are very legal in many areas as many neighborhood HOAs, municipalities, etc. require long term 6 month or longer tenants. Now that's unlikely to really come back at you, but I also don't think its a blanket coverall.

short term month to month are used at times when the 1 or 2 year expires if renter is not sure of their situation at that time. I have had a few stay on a month to month until they knew they could sign on to a long term deal again or give notice to move out so I could have my PM find another tenant.
