But as long as their rental properties are still cash flowing I’m sure some experienced landlords will find creative ways to make back up the loses in some way.

During these tough times I am sure they do not want to lose a buyer.

Once you get past that...Now, you have lenders with cash they can afford to lose. 

They gave 30 days notice and they paid for 30 days of rent, so you didn't lose any rent or suffer damages by their early departure.

Probably they would lose that position in court but landlords do not want to go after them so the tenant letters being sent out are more of a grab to see what they can get in relief from the landlord.

If you own a 4 unit and 2 tenants lose their jobs, you miss out on 50% of rent.

You're saying that since you make so much money at your first job, you're willing to work a 2nd full time job...and use the "extra" income from the first full time job to pay your employer on the 2nd full time job...for the privilege of working there, with the hope that over time you will get enough promotions and raises to make it worth your while...even though you have no control or promises that those promotions and raises will ever happen....and yes, why invest in something that's losing you money? 

Very true Joe,Illinois, and Cook county in general, already has tenants friendly laws in place and many tenants are trying to take advantage even more so now with the pandemic and the eviction ban.I drafted a letter for my tenants, similar to the one here on BP, to explain the pandemic situation and its effect on landlords and tenants, and responsibilities of each.I also am letting my tenants know that if they lose their job or have hardship due to the virus they need to fill out an application, that I created, to verify the hardship. 

I would contact the bank and hopefully they'll call him and put pressure on him to finish the job else risk losing bank approval/recommendation.

It’s a 3-1 house in Missouri (I know 3-1s are tough to sell J Scott).Paid $19K in cash needs about $35K in rehab with an ARV of $130K.Amid the coronavirus with unemployment going up and demand going down I know it’s not an ideal time to be flipping, but I feel a house for $60K is hard to lose on.
