Toughest month ever- every landlords nightmare
Every landlord always talks about how great their investments have been and that's usually the case but we all from time to time run into some real tough situations. Well here is mine -
Beginning of October I had 8 empties, 3 evictions, and two of my tenants left in the middle of October with my appliances, kitchen cabinets, and light fixtures. This has by far been the worst cash flow month for me in a very long time!
I wonder if anyone can share some of their nightmares and share some words of wisdom...

thanks for your input @Shazia Chiu
Even though I got multiple empties, I am trying to be picky and doing full background check. I rather be safe and follow my process rather rent it to the next tenant that walks in.
