@Michael Dardaris long term great tenants are worth their weight in gold but at the end of the day, you are running a business not a charity.

I also read Brando Turner's book "Managing Rental Properties" several times to become more efficient in running these properties as a business, not a charity, But, not the finance aspect of it. 

Next time ask him if he thinks this project is a charity. 

And then your coming to someone like me, needing the cash infusion to survive, and I and others like me are not a charity, it will cost, dearly, that's just the reality of it. 

It was booked by a charity similar to Make a Wish, and the representative had (25) 5 star reviews. 

Listen to them.....Don't let your relationship with the tenant start off like this.They could be telling the truth (probably not) but still you are running a business, not a charity here.....

You could have her move out and then just pay her $550 a month and be a charity and reach the same outcome if you really want to. 

No guru tells you that you're going to have to evict sick kids if you aim to succeed as a landlord.You are not a charity, and you pay your taxes.

It is one thing if you want to operate as a charity, but you better have deep pockets to do so if you are throwing out good business practice.

Why not give it to a charity?
