My advice is soft walking, hard vetting.

If it's something like unpaid astronomical medical bills I would be more understanding VS it being something like an unpaid auto loan, unpaid credit cards, etc.If the rental market is soft in your area then sure - consider a strong co-signer - but if it's a more competitive market tenant-wise you should be receiving some better renters. 

Also the early retirement folks that need to survive sans retirement acct access pre-59.5Not sure if this is a soft sell for crummy yawner financial advisor advice from Kyle or not, but RE thankfully has inflation and  cost buffers built in if done right.  

we have also found that people have removed or replaced old mechanical floor vents (18"x24"), which ends up with a soft spot because there are no floor joists there.  

Not much inventory in general but a few market segments are soft (downtown condos, fixer-uppers and anything tenant-occupied).

Can we instead pay for the rehab/soft costs through out s corp to minimize tax?

The coal mines will be closed in a few years and from what I can tell the rental market is pretty soft and inexpensive right now as people leave a town in transition. 

They are also softly claiming they haven’t done anything wrong and May be it’s a different issue. 

@Matt M.To take that metaphor in a different direction: people wearing ties and jackets tell you not to worry, we're getting "a soft correction" soon, you look out the window and see this.

Let's say you borrow money from what's called a soft hard money lender.
