. - Many of the Renter's Insurance policies do offer limited damage protection to owner, so it may be a good business decision for an owner to pay while tenant being evicted.Property managers CANNOT get liability insurance on a property they have no ownership interest in.

This is because they didn’t budget properly and rent wasn’t high enough to cover actual expenses (repairs and maintenance, cap ex, vacancy and loss, tenant damage and turnovers, etc don’t expect to have any money left over after all of these expenses are accounted for if the rent is less than $1,500/month).

I might have mentioned this before, but it makes me think of a story I heard awhile back where a semi was stuck underneath an overpass and a bunch of engineers were trying to figure out how to get it out without damaging the overpass.

And STRs really help because you don't have the large dings that long term rentals have - i.e tenants damaging the property to where you have huge make ready costs (the str insurance covers that), no collections or evictions issues. 

A minimum temperature of 55 oF must be maintained inside your Rental Unit at all times; damage to the Premises resulting from you not doing so is your sole responsibility.19.

Hello everyone,I have been given 15 day extension to show an effort to do repairs on a large SFH that now has a unlawful detainer/former tenant who has been found subleasing, damaging the property and preventing contractors from entering.

If you have zero vacancies, zero tenant damage, make sure utilities (especially heat) stay on every winter even if the tenant doesn’t pay.
