Even more than just that, I really believe there is a strong chance a judge will have a different perception of this scenario than they have for most cases of squatting.  

For me, if you said you were so sorry for the delay, and to make it up to me you were going to give me a rent credit for the full 2 weeks I was without A/C, that would change my perception of you. 

It's not having a conversation.Maybe I'm heartless.Maybe that's the perception I give.If that's the perception people hold, it doesn't bother me much.I don't buy a home to allow squatters to occupy it for free, regardless of their past circumstances. 

The checklist creates the perception that I am going to be picky on move-out, so it invites more issues to be reported.

Doing this a few times really changed my perceptions.

Of course, you cannot discriminate as a matter of law, I am not speaking about dumping potential/capable tenants due to personal issues or perceptions of people because of who or what they are.  

I agree with your perception of the market at this time: I wouldn't invest now in that area.

And vice/versa.Ofcourse everyone wants it to work but many people have different perceptions of how things could and should be done.If we have a client that is not a fit, why drag it out.

When you embark on you real estate empire building journey, you must ask yourself if your primary goal is to fix the societal problems you mentioned above, or if it is to make money.If your primary goal is to help others, you would be better off working with charities.  

This is on top of having excellent promotional rates (something I don't bring up here since it skews peoples perception of how the strategy works).
