I have hear from others in the industry that their business has not been affected at all while others say they are going through the complete opposite.

There are slum landlords who give the industry a black eye.

If your able to contact the potential tenants' employer for job status and income; that means they are in an industry declared essential.

They're talking about perhaps 20% unemployment and the GDP drops 30 to 50% effectively take us into a short-term Great Depression. the travel industry said this is worse than the 2008 financial crisis + 911 combined.

I did not get an email from themthere was a post by another member about the genesis of todays HML industry and how institutional capital came in and filled a huge void after about 2011 you know also the crowd funders like patch  and realtyshares etc its a double edge sword when your hedgefund says no more. 

In the commercial/industrial world there is a clause, namely "Force Majeure" which legally allows a tenant and landlord to breach contractual obligations.
