Account Closed Landlords... Stop being so hard on your tenants
1 April 2020 | 125 replies
i agree with robert not all landlords are alike.but one thing we all have in common we bought are buildings on tenants paying rent.if does not matter if one unit or 1000.we all counted on that tenant paying rent.so do wantever helps you do it in collecting rent.i have found now will most tenants i will talked to most have their april rents ,and will probably have may rent will stimulas check.so start building up a cash reserve,put all major  remodeling  on hold.just fix what you must.your job now is to babysit your tenants ,try to get them to realize them stimulas check has to last along with those unemployment checks.i know none of you have signed up for this,but you have to adapt,or you will be one of the landlords that will go out of business.i seen many in 2008 ,that will stubborn in their ways and it hurt them.i was one for a liitle while then too.but you will learn without threat of eviction certain tenants our going to think they do not have to pay.your best chance is tell them work with you now to evoid eviction later.some will work out,and some not.but that is just like when you pick a tenant,you really do not know to 3 months later,if you got lucky and picked a great tenant.
