Usually when there's behavior like this, from VRBO or other companies, there's a stretch and they have already knocked on the door of consolidation via acquisition(say booking or airbnb).

Never heard of them before....but your typical real estate "mentoring" guru will invite you to a free 2-3 hour session, and convince you to come to all day on Saturday or 3 day weekend course for $299-$399, when you are at that course, they'll convince you to be a Big Dog player for full on mentoring at $15,000-$50,000.   

Due to this, the tenant with the dog wants to break the lease because they do not want to get rid of the dog.

If one of your tenants gets bit by a dog, falls off a ladder, etc. and they have a bunch of medical bills they can't afford, they almost have no choice but to sue whoever they can to get the money. 

Issue a Written Notice: If the behavior continues, issue a written notice citing the lease violations.

Humans cats and dogs, goldfish, tweety birds, not horses or other farm animals of any type.

I just posted today on another thread... ask your agent to download listing/sales history of hud homes into a s/sheet and go from there to analyze HUD pricing and acceptance behavior in your particular market.

Price optimized comps usually have occupancy around 70+% depending on the market.Projecting revenue is a bit mindbending, especially after 2020/21 when consumer behavior was very abnormal, but don’t let that scare you away from making a great investment - underwrite conservatively and you should do great!

I have let the right people aware of scotts rudeness. please understand we make no acceptance of his behavior, it wasnt personal its just a sales mentality issue.He is new, Myself have been with PD 18 mos but have 30 yrs selling, and 20 yrs in real estate.

Fannie/Freddie are, in theory, supposed to be used for owner-occupied properties and not investment properties, so they are trying to deter this type of behavior.
