I’m on the verge of giving Booking.com the boot , too many cancellations and the worst part is when you call customer service, which is China ….in order to validate you as a host they give you a call back so you can’t get your answer quickly and the callback takes a few minutes and half the time the call does not make it through- enough to make you wanna scream.

Look at the application, start pricing third party flat fee services for each step.

If the complainer can't smell it in their apartment, but, are uptight enough to be bothered by the passing smell in the hallway...it may not be the smoker that has the problem.I have found that complainers/boat rockers are often wound a bit to tight, and that when you are a highly responsive empathetic landlord, they turn you in to their own personal karma delivery machine, to right all the wrongs that previously fallen on deaf ears.Good luck.

The pref layer is a third party institutional player.  

If you have a loan, then you will have to get a new loan to buyout and ensure the other party is not on the loan.

Most lenders who order appraisals are required to order them through a 3rd party AMC, which can add additional costs to the appraisal but ensures that there is no lender (Or borrower) bias in regards to the values.

If the eviction goes to court, then there is a record of that eviction on their file and it will make it harder for them to find another place to live (assuming the landlord does a background check).Not renewing the lease happens when either party decides they simply don't want to renew the lease. 

I rented out all the buildings and made all parties ecstatic.

This will be for my excellent service as a landlord.Just like a restaurant does when you have a party of 8 or more - they add a mandatory tip.Doubt there will be any laws against this, at least initially.

The tricky part, is everyone analyzes and values one metric over the others.
