They don't really care so much about facts, reality, what's good or bad, they just want a giant damn snickers to cram in there pie-hole, and to feel guilt free when there doing it.Now before ya-shake your fist in the air over the collective stupidity/insanity of it all keep in mind, these are the same kids that we all decided to raise where nobody got 1st, 2nd or 3rd place anymore, no-no-no, we said that would hurt feelings so we decided regardless of actions EVERYONE got a medal, the exact same medal. 

I am a CA RE Broker who has done loans for decades in CA. 

I bought from a primary homeowner in Indianapolis metro area who took really good care of this home (I did live in this house and rented it out when I moved back to California) and from a flipper in Indy more recently.As far as primary homeowners, they can range from taking really good care of the house to someone who has a lot of deferred maintenance - I renovated a local property that had a lot of issues.  

One lesson is careful to be swayed by U tubes and claims .

Most of our tenants are traveling healthcare professionals, so we’ve tailored our lease terms to meet their unique needs.If a tenant needs to terminate the lease early due to their contract being canceled, we allow them to break the lease without a fee, as long as they can provide proof.

Rental fraud is prevalent in our industry so be careful.  

@Lucas Schlund the same thing that happened to all the STRs in NY City when their ordinance went into effect, as well as many other cities.Owners must comply and the government doesn't care about your potential losses:(

These have two very different next steps.If it is a condo, you need to check your condo docs and see where the unit ends and what is common area. if its a leak in a pipe in a wall that is typically common owner and the condo association should take care of it.

Would they know/care if the money comes from someone else's account?

I am taking care of the rentals and 2 teen daughters.
