Tennis the white line is in-football the white line is out-go figure. 

I have a hard move-in date that the tenant must adhere to, but if I cannot provide the unit to them within 14 days (outgoing tenant holds over, tree falls on building, destructive fire, code violations, etc.) they can walk away free and clear, or delay occupancy (their option).The money they are asking for in advance is absolutely par for the course; I require first, last and security deposit (as well as any pet fees) to be paid before I will even sign a lease with a prospective tenant.Maybe someone who is more familiar with HOAs can chime in, but it seems possible that they would have their own bureaucracy that they would subject their owners to.No legal advice given.

So I'm stuck appealing in order to even rent the place out. Going
