Oftentimes you don't get enough warning to know your tenant is going to do this until you're already in the 30 day notice period, and the courts move too slowly to help.Because of this tenant, I've decided that from now on I will start talking to my tenants at the 90 day mark to feel out whether or not they want to stay (presuming I want them to stay) and start the discussion about the 30 day process if they seem like they are going to leave.  

I would not presume to 'keep' the contents until at lease a year later.Have you EVER dealt with this issue and gone to court?

So, presumably, the Tenant's liability insurance would have to cover the pit bull. 

Presume the rent is late so send a demand for unpaid rent and late fee along with the 30 day notice of termination now.

And many situations use a combination of the 3 approaches.The single family house (sfr) is real estate, since it is (presumably) permanently attached to the land, etc.

@Natalie SchanneSomething I found interesting was theres a guy selling some single family homes that are rented out to i presume college students, getting over 1%...but even the one that was selling for 325k and renting for $3570/month made me hesitant.

I apologize as I'm not real big on wholesaling... but I would presume there would be difficulties in wholesaling a short sale.

@Philip Mullinax I presume you are going to give notice that their lease will not be renewed?

I am guessing they all offer about the same service for the same price.With ***********, my prospective tenant pays the $35 fee.In some cases the mere mention of a background and credit check has scared off some people presumably because they had something to hide.

I’ve already gotten 3 messages to view the unit in only a few hours so people are still looking and moving during the pandemic, but my largest and most expensive unit has been sitting vacant longer than it presumably would have, pandemic or not.
