I was wondering if there is a risk in taking over from property management and having a new lease agreement with the tenant.

For those reading and thinking about this, make sure to check your local zoning first.On our nearest lake, rentals for anything less than a month is NOT allowed by code. 2 property owners bought specifically with weekly rentals in mind without checking and have been in a years long legal battle that they are not winning.Just food for thought.As far as VRBO, I have used it from the consumer end and LOVED it.

Certainly some good food for thought here and better clarity on what I'll do next. 

They don't live the least bit irresponsibly and yet can't afford a nice and safe place to live and good food to eat.People who don't need this, like the silicon valley techies, don't need it at all, but will take advantage of the regulations- every cent they can.

I have seen our expenses increases a bit (primarily in food) with the three (all under 5) we have now.

Food for thought..

Admittedly, I could take this to another level and get items such as make-up remover, razors, and food (I do provide small snacks like coffee, popcorn, etc).

@Alan Zee I take your point but it’s a war zone with a Whole Foods and an Arts Center.

Be very careful in taking any refund as they usually have sties attached.
