Anyone who takes your post offensive the way he did has more problems then worrying about which tenant to choose for his property.

Whoever has liquid will invest just like the 2008 crises.The current crisis is a global crisis.

Last time, the US market crashed and that had an affect on the global economy.

And trust me, however Trump, corona virus, etc. may feel weird today, China becoming the global leader will make that all feel rather quaint. my2c on the future :)

Maybe more.Most people would be "reasonable" by hanging a line in the laundry room and drying clothes old-school when all reasonable efforts to replace the dryer and stay safe were exhausted during a global pandemic.

The risk seems minimal as the offense is largely unrelated to his ability as a tenant.

Non payment is the same issue as far as eviction but as others eluded to , you can throw them out quickly without the hassle of an eviction for non lease offenses .

If your tenant refuses a rent increase and you are taking time to think it over, no offense, but you are doing it wrong.

When business people get that wrong is invariably where you see their businesses fail, not to mention global economies.People pay rent.

It's important to look at a nationwide report because they might have been convicted of an offense or be on a sex offender list in another county or state and you deserve to know that before renting to them.Another powerful screening tactic is to get an address history report so you can compare their actual residential history with what they claim on their application.
