Politicians tend to be more in tune with the mass voters and what moves the needle in the future for them with re-election.

It's my own opinion from the training I've taken in both Mass and Maine - the two states where I'm licensed. 

Anyone who hadn't paid me by the 4th, I'd include them in a mass text that said "Rent is due tomorrow to avoid late fees.

And as such, gets to expect to have the home to live in, without being invaded.And, imagine what it would be like to have a horde of complete strangers (and in SF right now, any open house will be a mass infusion of strangers) walking through your home, perhaps looking in your closets, your jewelry box, you medicine cabinets, checking out your stereo, your televisions, your computers....As an owner, do you really want that liability? 

In Mass, you wouldn't be able to get financing with an illegal unit.

Please, show me the masses who are unprepared, and I'll relent. 

Simply put, when people loose jobs en mass, they are forced to get creative.

If it's not in there, then you could respond with a written letter ignoring the text stuff and describing how requests for maintenance, emergency, etc are to be handled in the future (it should be something available to the masses if she didn't sign on to Tenant Cloud or similar in the lease, like letter, dedicated voice mail, etc). 2.

I just sent a mass text that rent is due tomorrow, if you haven't paid yet, please do so.So, how about you send him a text to pay a few days before it's actually due from now on?  

If you're husband can't be there with you, get a friend to help you with the open house if you are doing a mass showing.
