We will schedule everyone in about 5minute intervals on the same day of the viewing...in time lapse of an hour.These steps allow us to effectively 1) screen 2) use of our time 3) book the units to keep on focusing on other parts of the business.Hope it helps....

In other news, the “PRO” icon by your avatar just reminded me I let my pro membership lapse.

But the good news is, its based on time lapse. 

She is on a month to month lease, and I gave her the 30 day notice for multiple late payments and lapses in insurance.

If you're going after workers, they sometimes clear out in December and January so be aware of the possible lapse in cashflow.Building can be anywhere from$12k to $25k more per space from permitting to being rent ready. 

The last thing you want is for the insurance to accidentally lapse for nonpayment and not have any coverage....for either party.

My main question is if I need to have/should ask them to sign another year long lease or let it lapse into month to month.

Not only do you get copies of the policy declaration pages, you will receive renewal notices, notices of cancellation(either through cancellation or lapse), and as additional interest, can inquire at any time whether policy is current without going through the tenant.

Ultimately though an entire week went by with no one finding out any answers and just letting COE lapse?

It can be very difficult to evict a tenant for lapse of time and for any other reason other than non payment.
