Emotional Support Animal strikes again

Hey there BP,

I bring another case of emotional support animals being a nuisance in my investing career.

The first time this happened my PM company wouldnt manage a current tenant when they found out he had a pitbull so he got the dog an ESA card.. we couldn't renew his lease.. so he reports me to HUD.. I paid the last tenant what they wanted... now I have a strike with HUD.

Just recieved an email today from a different property managment company on my quadplex in missouri.. same exact situation, came into the PM office to renew their lease, pm asked about animals... tenant has 2 pitbulls which are both ESA's.. PM company wont renew their lease knowing they have pitbulls. So now we have to kick the tenants out...

Most likely they will go to HUD and complain..

What are we landlords supposed to do in a situation like this?

Any suggestions and feedback are greatly appreciated.
