And of course, the court will want to know what monetary damages she or her son personally incurred by her son living in my unit for 9 months, despite my allowing them to break their lease and leave owing me $_____________ in unpaid rent.The court, will also be made aware that not only was I unaware that the son was severely asthmatic, or that there was any supposed smoking going on in my rental, but that despite these facts, when the son advised me that there was smoke in the unit, on his word alone, I addressed the matter of supposed smoking in the rental with a swift and firm hand.And of course, you can explain to the judge why you are filing this type of frivolous case in his/her court.Please inform your client that should she pursue a court case, I will counter-sue for breach of contract, for all rent due on it, for filing a frivolous lawsuit, and anything else my attorney finds appropriate, and I will be asking the court to have her pay my attorney fees as well.Any further communication I receive from you will be forwarded to an attorney.Most Sincerely,YouYep, I'd probably send this letter :-)

."), so the personal relationship and utmost goodwill is not worth the small increase I would gain, in my opinion.Market rents for similar properties are very close to the $1050.00 number.I am not claiming that the above way is the most business savvy or the right way, or even a good way, it's just the way I have decided to operate.More info: I am currently (and have been since renting) cash flow negative, by roughly $80 a month.)

I'm afraid this will be a costly mistake for you, but I sincerely hope you are lucky with this tenant and you can thumb your nose at all of us naysayers.BUT, you do really need to learn the laws for your state.
