If there is evidence the child are being routinely being left unsupervised and are too young for that in your state, if you hear the parent hitting the children, if the children are not being fed (e.g. kids picking up food from other sources like the trash) these are reasons to call. 

If I felt I would routinely face such dangers I would get out of the landlording business.I respect others views on this board but I encourage you to think of the least savory, most unhinged tenant you have had, and then put a gun in their hands.

Above all else do not ever waver from your routine for anyone. 

Many types of fees (i.e. application fee, late fee, dishonored check fee, etc) can be, and are routinely, collected by most landlords.

I do a lot of asset management which is a fancy way of saying I manage the property managers but what it really means is that I get the benefit of their collected wisdom without having to do all the hard work they do.We also do a lot of what's called 'value add' deals where we take an uderperforming property and bring it up to market or 'stabilize' it.

Couple of the things that have made my life easier as an owner and property manager:Listed out tenant qualifications in our application processCreated reminders to do routine checks on properties (check HVAC, clean gutters, etc.)Leveraged property management software (we use Buildium)Thanks again for starting the conversation!

I love to watch stand up comedy but so far no one has done a routine about "games tenants play" and what happens when landlords uphold their rules.

They will routinely stack their Amazon boxes up high next to the furnaces and boilers.

We travel often abroad and when we are away from routine, she is a lot more open to listen about “crazy” ideas since she is away from stress and problems.

They have a fancy website but handwritten receipts that are not specific at all.
