This is logical.

@John TeachoutThe law makers and their logic lol

I sent the pics 1) because logically as I explained it will likely reduce the likelihood they complain and 2) I will have to present the evidence in court anyways.

My logical question was why not just save money for a down payment or take equity out of your other property to get the down payment?

Unfortunately eviction according to the set laws in your area seem to be the logical path. 

Well, of course, since you only have one rental, you have a lot less to lose than someone who has many rentals.Somehow I don't see the logic in that.You are not in me with this fight. 

It is the logical thing to do.

@Brandon Turner so I’m thinking that everyone who gives the thumbs up to a version of “hey it’s kind of illegal and you know it but probably won’t be a problem and you can come out ahead” will applaud their tenants who apply the same logic to not paying their rent?

It follows logic that the more you use something, the more wear and repairs you can expect.

Now I’m from the Indianapolis where A class rents are $1400-$2200 and not crazy 5k a month, but that logic doesn’t make a ton of sense to me.
