Suddenly, woman and two children walk in thru the side door (corner lot house) with toys & clothes and ask what we're doing in the home they just rented.

@Chase Yokoyama I bought houses the same way I'd buy clothes -- is it well made & a good value.

Renters Insurance really only covers tenant personal possessions.LTR landlords typically require it as just another level of protection to avoid tenant lawsuits when backups, floods, etc. ruin tenant possessions.If you are providing a fully-furnished home, all they are bringing are clothes and personal items.

With the twin bed in closets, you would still have a closet for clothing?

To carry the analogy further, the Upstate NY landlords are feeling quite restricted in these new clothes we've been forced to wear.I'm afraid that these new regulations will continue to drive entrepreneurs (RE investors, specifically) out of NY, taking their tax revenue with them. 

They spare no expense when it comes to eating out, clothes, or vacations.

Hello BP members.First I'd like to thank everyone for all the great help.I bought a double unit in Buffalo NY and had to evict a tenant, the tenant was not at home during the eviction so i just replaced the locks and texted the tenant that he will need to schedule time with me if he wish to take his belongings - so far no reply from the tenant.By "belongings" i mean some clothing, pictures, mattress etc.

Surely you don't think that housing should be treated differently than any other product or service in this country; cars, clothes, boats, electronics, jewelry etc......

Similar to when you bring a 24 pack of clothes hangers home thinking that you will always have enough hangers from here on out, only to find yourself looking for a hanger 2-3 weeks later because more of your wife's clothes found there way onto them. 

Also, is this a C/D class property, where the tenant will be ok with the inconvenience of using coins for washing and drying clothes?
