Too much drama and potential chaos over what might be one months missed rent between tenants.Crazy is not protected and not worth it.

It sounds harsh, but there's a lot that I do charity wise to help people get back on their feet, however I can be charitable and treat my business like a business at the same time.  

Sorry for the harsh lesson, but, you should not do anymore "...FU to the landlord..." type of stuff....and try to end this amicably as possible, or risk being even more expensive after adding your legal fees and the landlords legal fees and damages.Don't let pride or self-righteousness add more fuel to the fire, it only makes it sting and cost more.

There is and will be drama when people are away from their families and friends confined to a bunk bed.

I was told that the producers of the show got very annoyed because the work at one of the houses was going very smoothly and there was no drama, so they manufactured a "water problem" to get things a bit more interesting.

Think straight and get ahead the smart way...without the added drama!!!

Sorry if this sounds harsh but I think you're using the "we're not young, can't take risks, want a new kitchen" stuff to veer away from jumping into REI.

Personally I'm partying like a rock star because I finally got rid of this totally nutty, high drama legacy tenant in a building I own (she was the last to leave).

@Matt Faix don't get in the middle of their drama.

So really depends on your personal ability to handle state regulators and the drama and stress that would come with that..
