Two days later we were informed by the tenant that the gas was shut-off to their respective space served by the package rooftop units whereby portable electric baseboard heaters were purchased and brought in to provide temporary heat until such time a final decision could be reached as to whether to repair/replace the existing package rooftop units.

A lot of my tenants are on social security or some other already established government subsidies, and the same people that always pay late, still pay later and ask "what are you going to do for me?"

I want to be respectful of the tenant that is living there now as well as obey any laws, but the reality is that we need to rent the second room especially as the current tenant is also behind in his rent now.I guess my question is are there any ideas on how to rent a vacant room as opposed to a vacant property?

How did you establish your rental rate? 

From what I can gather, there has never been an established HOA so there are no records or anything to review.

You always want to respect "not wasting the time of" the resources you have so offering a payment to have this done is appreciated.

The intent behind this idea was to give everyone lower exposure to one another, and to prevent an entire property team from needing to quarantine and by doing so leaving no team members to look after their respective property if that were to happen.
