Get to get in, make sure its clean, everything is in good order, change out filters and such to make sure its done properly and also make sure nothing is broken

@Joseph HenryIt works the same on an adjustable rate mortgage - if you pay extra it reduces the principal balance

I balance my portfolio so that I always have a slight buffer of PAL.

Enjoy those wine dinners and piano bars – sounds like a good balance to the hustle.

.- What does your mangement contract state about the PMC chasing tenants for past due balances after they move out?

The sophisticated money is not buying in stagnant markets with poor fundamentals because they can achieve the 1% rule, can complete a BRRRR or because of more favorable landlord tenant laws exist just to highlight what’s rarely part of their acquisition criteria which is a stark contrast to the mindset of most within the BiggerPockets community.Since your focus is specifically on landlord tenant law component I’ll add those who follow the law, properly maintain their property, respond timely to tenant requests, use well drafted and fair leases and don’t unreasonably withhold deposits  find themselves in far less tenant controversies. 

So, if you secure just 1 or 2 bookings under 7 days, you could potentially meet the criteria, provided you demonstrate material participation and proper active management of the property.
