Any attempts will be seen as weakness and encourages more bad behavior.

They can't lock the country or world down forever, they are merely killing the economy in the process of trying to save the weak, when the weak will die anyways.

I stole from famous poker player (can't remember which) . really weak poker player "fish" was losing lots of money. 

Do not buy anything right now, and especially do not buy some weak ,break even-condos during greatest financial crisis in last 100 years.

One house has been chronically behind, another two usually pay mid month (by arrangement).

I was a weak landlord on my first.

And if you have a provision in your lease, you need to be prepared to enforce it or the tenant will see that as a sign of weakness and permission to violate other areas of the lease.

It just kills me to do this, because I think that the guy's claim is so bogus that if we ignored it, the guy's lawyer, knowing it's a weak case, would drop it.   

The tenant knows the Landlord is weak, so they use COVID as one more excuse to pay late - or not at all. 

A good broker will make sure the chain links stay together and strengthen any weak spots along the way, a bad broker will look for someone else to QB the thing and wait on their check.Nightmare closings do happen and they happen everywhere because it can be a title issue, it can be insurance, it can be a terrible team from the lender, your broker can be bad, and all of the above.
