I am glad they didn't ONLY declare a moratorium on evictions, but also foreclosures.

I'm not sure if a "no fault eviction" exists, but it would be pretty awful for a person to have to declare that they were evicted even though they were a great tenant (just guessing here; maybe you do have a really good reason to evict, but you didn't mention it).I'm not a landlord yet, but I could possibly find myself in this situation because of our current one (we're abroad and when we move back we may want to live in one of our rentals).
