Thanks for the response!

It's online only.

Not sure of the best place to post this so here it goes.I've talked with an online bookkeeper that I like quite well.

They are extremely friendly and responsive to inquiries.  

Owned 6 rental properties in Hays, Kansas, a small college town....we always started advertising our rentals the day after St Patrick's Day and would make the students sign a one year lease..you basically have until school starts to rent it out with the more responsible students signing earlier.

I am sure some of the landlords are trying to figure out how they are going to make their mortgage payments.If the house is flooded and sheet rock has to be removed you can forget keeping the deposit or getting the rent.I think the appropriate response is to say something like..."

If the pipe is a common pipe that feeds several units, then the HOA will be responsible.
