This is the simplest method, but it also means your tenants are more likely to abuse the utilities by leaving windows open with the heat or A/C running, leaving lights on, ignoring the toilet that constantly flushes on its own, etc.3.

Airbnb is an abusive and controlling relationship and the more anyone can separate dependency the better they are.

A good friend of mine suggested I should take her as my tenant because what was perceived to be a prolonged softening rental market that is happening and extremely limited quality tenant pool. 

@Heath Donnald  haven't had a similar issue but if the child is abusive to her she can get an order of protection against him and in most states that means someone has to move out. 

There are also so many stories of people who have come from intensely difficult circumstances and have managed to find a way (incarceration, homelessness, addiction, abusive relationships, extreme poverty, you name it).

Here 's some bullet points to consider from our market:1) Unfortunately, most HAs no longer take away tenant vouchers for program abuses, including property damages.

They serve veteran women who deal w/ substance abuse and homelessness.

And then in comes the junk....we're now at 20 cars, a bus, an RV or two, a tow truck, washers/dryers, and even an airplane fuselage...yes you read that right.A bunch of us neighbors called the County of course and they sent out a Code Enforcement officer.

They are worth the investment because they get used and abused
