@Jim K.I have made an offer on a house where there has been a very heavy smoker living for a number of years.

No carpet, hardwood (unless it's already there) or cardboard/laminate.Don't rent to smokers. 

We use Kathryn Cook-Crespo at Bottom Line for our sales, she is very much in the trenches and does a good job understanding the needs of investors.

No cooking oil or smores poptarts though...In all seriousness though, please protect yourselves during this time

It cannot really get cooking until the convention scene can reload, as Guy has pointed out plenty.

Cook County Sheriff (Illinois) has just announced a 30 day moratorium on evictions due to the Corona Virus.

The Cook County Circuit Court has made the decision to partially close the circuit court until April 15th.

Restaurant servers, cooks, those in retail, hotels and transport are literally out of work right now.

For this situation, how would you navigate finding out information while interviewing tenants like: where are you from, how old are you generally, where did you go to school, what do you like to do for fun, do you have a SO who will be over often, do you cook a lot, etc.?
