Our government has responded by aggressively curtailing economic and social activity in order to suppress the further spread of the virus as quickly as possible.

The government should then analyze this, and notify the landlord of the income increase or decrease.

@Paolo Sciarra I'll echo @Todd Dexheimer and add Wilmington and Asheville (smaller markets, obviously).Additionally Greenville, Spartanburg, Columbia, and Charleston in SC are growing as well.I track population growth trends in this publicly available spreadsheet as I believe it's a very good indicator of the positive long term trends that support the MFH asset class (not the only one, but a great one).https://docs.google.com/spread...It's all based on government data and identifies both perennially high growth metros, as well as recent accelerators (Flint, Michigan - really!)

Kind of like a government handout - why would anyone work harder for something that's guaranteed?

What kind of obstacles will I run into with local city governments trying to accomplish this. 

This all depends on the area your property is located in and how much the maximum amount of rent you can even get in this location for that specific unit.My point is, If you can get the same rent for a section 8 tenant and for a regular tenant, wouldn't you rather have the security of having the government pay you?

The partial claim she expressed was a result of it being a government loan and in particular an FHA loan.

This is further complicated by the fact that many states (and the federal government, via Section 4024 of the CARES Act) have limits/moratoriums on evictions in place right now. 

You are right the executive order allows local governments to halt evictions up to July 28th.

Are the government regulations being painted with too broad of a brush stroke?
