It’s a dumb situation I put myself in being a new landlord but hopefully will learn from this.That is way behind on water and I would be having a conversation about it telling him he needs to get caught up. 

At this point, we decided to terminate the lease.Our lease has a nuisance clause it in which states the following is a violation of the lease agreement and grounds for lease termination:-behaving in a loud, unruly, or obnoxious manner,-threatening the comfort, health, safety, or rights of others (tenants, Landlord’s agents)-disrupting the Landlord’s business operationsAll three apply to this tenant’s actions.The tenant’s wife refers to herself as a “property manager” and claims to work at another apartment complex in town, not sure if this is true.

Tenants know they have to behave or they are gone (not during covid of course) we can raise rents anytime with a 30 day notice.

“Hands-on” brokers who really manage you will be having you come in for team/mgt meetings and even making assignments.

You might just be having an unlucky first year, or you could have a bad PM. 

They could be having a house built, they could be doing all kinds of things sometime in the next year.

You shouldn’t be having too many entries a year.

They may be elderly, they may be ill, they may be having other problems in their life, they may be short on money to fix things, any number of problems that people may have in life.

I like section 8 because.Government's portion of rent is always on time.you may be able to charge more rent.tennts do not want to lose their vouchers so may behave better.tenancies are longer on average.in my area the housing authority won't let the tenant move out without just cause if they still owe rent.
