Well, it's been about a week and the loitering has intensified and a neighbor and my lawn guy told me that she saw the dogs there again over the weekend.

Provide or require area rugs.

They probably don't have it, though, so they'll try and bully you into paying for their hotel.We had a tenant have to move out one day because of a sewer backup that flooded her apartment rug partly into a room from the bathroom.  

My posts for help on the Facebook page are immediately deleted and swept under the rug.

The paneling was wood, the trim was brown, the rug was brown, the baseboard heaters were brown. 18 Windows in the unit and yoy wouldnt know it, so dark!

Once they realize that they lost 10-20 percent in the next several months and they see that rental rates are not as robust as during Covid there will be a lot of investors who will try to do a rug pull and get out of their depreciating homes.

Everyone will talk about leveraging you money and other things, but ultimately it's your money and you should build the lifestyle you want with it - but just make sure you also build protections into it so people can't pull the rug out from under you.

My home inspector specifically excluded checking for structural cracks, damage, etc UNDER tenant belongings including area rugs in the garage.

You can require area rugs upstairs if the hard surface floor is carrying noise.

We have had people burn a large portion of a living room rug, smash televisions, allow a pet to chew up a dresser in our pet free home, and puncture holes on the inside of the refrigerator.
