I almost needed one done recently on homeowner/residents in Ewa but got them out without any cash for keys - just the threat of being foreclosed on and kicked out on the street.

When we took over the home we were of course told he'd never been late but once or twice in 8 years.The empty threats to leave don't really bother me.

I was wondering what other landlords think about the following: Structuring the lease to include fines for violations with systematic notices and payment deadlines instead of threats of termination.

The reason I ask is I get a threat of suit fairly regular and have never been sued for anything RE related. 

Stick to the terms of the lease....If they terminate they pay the fee and leave early....If they stay they pay.....If one moves out, the other pays the full rent until another approved roommate is acceptedThe both terminate, pay the fee and move early........ best option....If she pulls the " I don't feel safe", she can legally terminate early with no penalty IF...IF.... the threat is documents with a police report restraining order etc.....she cant just claim it..... you need legal documentation of the threat to her safety.....Best option is they are both out and you re-start.

The threat to file may be enough to move things along.

For those of you Scottsdale - be careful, I doubt this is going to be a threat, there's just a lot of community pressure.Thanks for the input!

They are heavily funded, so its not an idle threat.

So, the $222,500 price point was aggressive, but with the right marketing and right touches inside, the property rose to the top and closed with no issues or threat of low appraisal, establishing the new highest comp in the neighborhood.
