As a professional property manager, I'm coming across an interesting trend related to institutions providing financial assistance for tenants who have trouble paying their security deposit and I would love to hear feedback from the BP community.Large PM companies have begun partnering with financial institutions, such as Rhino Insurance, to help tenants who struggle with paying their security deposit.

A "professional" tenant can draw out an eviction and and strip anything of value from the home, costing you tens of thousands without batting an eye.There are stories of people living in a home for over a decade without paying a dime.

Sharing your vision with real estate professionals, local investors, or even family and friends might uncover unexpected opportunities.

HI ReetiI would 100% recommend contacting local professionals in your chosen markets.
