A highly bureaucratic and regulated society increases costs, increases the unemployment rate, makes it harder to function as a small business (big companies usually have a team of lawyers to handle all this stuff), reduces competition, slows GDP growth, and also makes products and services more uniform.

Nice words of encouragement.

The people coming to the house either weren't that interested, or were the dregs of society.

This is actually encouraging to me.

However, his mother is leach on society and is getting every gov hand out she can get, and only wants more.

If so, you will probably need an attorney, go to court, and get a judge to rule in her favor allowing her to stay, but you will probably have to present a darn strong case.Sorry I don't have any more encouraging advice.

You are suggesting to set up the note in a way that will prevent an early pay off instead of encouraging it.

Thanks for the encouragement and happy belated!

I do the same as many have posted: give a longer than required notice (60 days vs 30), mention what a terrific tenant they are and how I've reflected this fact in the amount of the increase, encourage them to call me if they wish to discuss this matter or any other, etc.
