I do sympathize but nope, not for me.we have a camera at each of our STR's, they are outside on the entry level so we know if our house is getting trespassed and/or if our elevator is getting abused, even that was a toss up for us but it is only that area and i barely can stand having it.

In many instances like this one - by the time it gets investigated damage is already done I love these articles not for the fact investors are getting abused.. but the statements about lavish lifestyle  fancy dinners etc etc.. every single white collar litigation or criminal complaint has that exact same language.. and now you know why the Mafia guys just lived in some plain Jane home and maybe drove a caddy and ate at a low end restaurant LOL.  

I like your idea about putting something in your lease to say that tenant is responsible for any maintenance/repairs on GD due to tenant neglect/abuse.
