I always try to find creative solutions for my tenants in need where they can pay weekly or biweekly, I also deferred rent up to two months and allowed them to get on payment plant and that was even before COVID-19.

I have a renter that has worked for a local gypsum plant for 15 years.

For example, I know of a plant manager who is losing workers because they know they will be earning more with the enhanced stimulus benefits.

This creates a delay by default (even if it is only hours), and another step that could suffer from a glitch/downed service/etc.(2)  I have read stories about how easy it is for a tenant to reverse the transaction after the deposit is made, and this company's policies have made it very difficult and lengthy for a landlord to fight the clawback.When they deposit funds right into my account (as John does, that acct # is in the lease), once the funds clear there is no opportunity to unring that bell. 

I'm on the fence about this one...The REO property I'm interested in is in a subdivision that the ground water is partially contaminated by THC from a manufacturing plant.

For me I'm finding this hard as I think the nation as a whole is going to suffer terribly through this.

So far I have had the boys strip a roof (used contractor to put on the roof) - resulted in boys in landfill jail for not having the cash (I did not know no credit cards) - boys claim there were 7 layers, take down 2 large trees, add 3 sister boards to a garage rafter, build 2 fence segments including an 8’ high fence, add dumpster stops to concrete to prevent fence damage, add privacy screen to a chain link fence (took surprisingly long - hog rings really do not work well), remove and rebuild a privacy partition on to a wall, rehang a gate with better hinges, weed an abandoned yard (unit caught fire in oct and due to Corona work has stopped - slightly wet winter and weeds were 4’ tall), plant a new citrus tree.  

It just doesn't happen.... instead, we hear sob stories about how tenants are suffering at the hands of their evil landlords and governments step in to provide 'protection'.  

I hope not because too many people suffer but too many people have very short memories or maybe are too young to have enough experience.  

When the market is bad, I suffer along with my Landlords.Unlike most property managers, business owners, Landlords, and Tenants, I use the good economy to save up and prepare for the bad economy.
