We think it will be more professional to give advance notice and want to prevent as much noise complaints, etc. as possible.

The writing was on the wall for me that I would have to move out of state some day so I was not comfortable putting down roots in real estate.

Could also look at a smart lock so that you can send your guest a code which would prevent the need of exchanging keys with your guest.

if it is something the tenant did or could have prevented-then they pay for it. 

We’ve laid down some roots with my spouse’s business, but it is likely I/we will have to move one more time in 2-3 years, prior to fully retiring in 2027 (if I have to move, family will stay here or we’ll leave and spouse will return ~once per month for a week at a time to maintain business).

GSE backed loans allow forbearances so those folks will get extra time in addition to the 120 days.I'm rooting for the borrowers and would rather not see a bunch of foreclosures.

Not only are you committing to years of the mortgage, but you are also putting down roots in a community for some period of time.

Cameras would be a good option if you can prevent the theft from happening.

The main problem with this method for us is that its taking a lot of our capital out of our pockets, preventing us from using that to buy a house to actually live in.

@Kevin ManzWhen you say your lease was iron clad - how did that prevent them from suing ?
