I think we were caught off guard that this is a minor, she looks older, and it would be a legitimate "no" to modifying the lease if she were 18+.There is a clause about unauthorized occupants, but as I understand the law, it would not apply to minors of whom tenants gain custody, thus increasing family size, which is protected by law?

I have been Air Guard for 19 years.

If so, what are safe guards to put in place?

I think the word Turnkey is does something to the investor's brain, it makes people let their guard down like they normally would not if they were just dealing with a realtor (ask for references, deal with a reputable company, 3rd party inspections, etc).

The scary part is that you never know how crazy someone might be and I honestly would never let my guard down.

I gave a guy a break during the government shut down , he was in the Coast Guard and he would receive his back pay eventually .

I've hired a security guard to sit at the property for a few nights; even hired a police car (empty) to sit at the property.Our local builders have done all of this and more.

Faith-based paper currency is a tool, not an asset - it is also vulnerable - that's history, not junk science.At the very least, this is going to catch some of the over-leveraged off-guard with devastating consequences, unless the banks issue foreclosure moratoriums in parallel with eviction moratoriums. 

If you catch them off guard after they've become comfortable, you can often learn what's really going on, or you can see that they all of a sudden don't get eye contact or they blurt out something they didn't intend to share like, "My aunt doesn't want me sleeping on her couch anymore," etc.
