If I rented property, I don't think I would throw them out, but they would pay it by the end of their lease and would sign that even if they didn't, I'd get my money. Of course it would also depend on their history. If they have been good tenants and took care of the property, you better keep them because it's not like someone is going to come to rent soon and the chances of getting bad tenants is too high, background checks or not.

I thought of buying a home and renting it out, but have decided against it. I know several people who do this and it's honestly not a good investment. A lot of frauds and idiots here in the Misc that don't know what they are talking about. Talking about investment properties living in a dorm or their mom's basements.

With that said, as this deteriorates, landlords are very likely to end up regretting not working something out with an existing tenant over going through a legal process and then trying to find a new one in a climate of widespread unemployment with high vacancy. Some people are likely to discover what I was trying to tell them about the dangers of putting all your eggs in the rental property basket of a single area instead of diversifying.
Yup

Unless of course, said tenant happens to be a miscer who thinks alongs the lines of "screw paying rent for the six months".
If you buy property in an area that attracts those kind of tenants (and if you approved those tenants), it's on you.

Nobody said breaching a contract is a moral outrage. It's not even like a misdemeanor.

Pulling a gun to extort something from your landlord because he stops providing services you aren't paying for, however, is also not a misdemeanor, because it is a felony.
Nah, fukk that. I’m not doing that.

If a tenant can't pay, he needs to move in with relatives and be honest with his landlord about it and forfeit the deposit. Then the landlord needs to find someone else as quick as possible.

Some landlords will kick him while he is down and sue for the remainder of the lease anyway and double dip.

Some tenants with nowhere to go will just live for free fro awhile and then either catch up on rent or not and maybe bankrupt everything due to a job loss.

It;s really dysfunctional all around.

Depending on the tenant would come to an agreement, possibly defer their rent for a while. One family has been there for about 7 years, never missed a single payment or any drama at all. That one was a real good investment, even if they pay half their rent the mortgage will be covered. They could pay me back the rest in installments over the next 12-18 months or something.

that'snot why you use a gun. it;s because he is abusive and tries to put you and your family out on the street when your back is against the wall.

Not all landlords 'need' to find someone else as quickly as possible. Especially in the current situation. But people whoarerenting an investment property ofmineare going topayorget evictedand veiled threats to the contrary (ref: this will get ugly) don't change this simple fact.

Landlords rank right up there with lawyers and car sales people.

Gonna get ugly for them when the commies come head hunting once the economy goes down.

Even Adam Smith said landlords are a bunch of parasites lol.

Who will - pray, tell - 'get even with me'? LOL at people talking tough on internet forums about tenants shirking rental obligations and potentially pulling weapons on landlords.

We're in the first innings of this thing so who knows how bad it will get. You're just starting to see the first unemployed people. Worst case scenario is great depression level unemployment ~25%. With the amount of debt in the system and how dysfunctional markets are right now, its in the realm of possibilities that things break. At that point you're just talking about squeezing blood from a stone trying to get rents from people. Many will squat and deputy dog wont be running all over town spending his days evicting people (although evictions regularly happened during the GD). Property values would plummet anyway and you finding renters to pay at the level of the mortgage would be hard. Who knows if you even have a job. Hopefully we don't reach these levels.

One thing this outbreak has reminded me about is just how much latent delusional thinking and mental illness there is in the world and why I have no interest in buying up rental properties.
Nah, fukk that. I’m not doing that.

Made in the 80's last year so no, though I'm not rich either. I own my house.

And by ugly I mean people telling you to piss off. Good luck getting an eviction now.

people like you are scary af and the reason why many people will NOT rent to anyone except short-term contracts for the ignorant or vulnerable (international students for e.g.).

there are many immigrants (chinese and indians) who straight up won't rent to white people cus they know when push comes to shove, a lot of them know how to abuse their rights. whereas with some fob, you can tell him gtfo and he'll be gone soon enough. srs.

imagine some fukkin ******* living in your house and refusing to pay rent for months. move back in with your parents or buy a van and shower at planet fitness. fukk off.
The hell are you on about?

Maybe I wasn't being very clear. The original comparison was to not having a right or guarantee to housing. Obviously if you pay for a place to live you have a right to live there, but housing isn't a right in of itself. If you own a rental property, obviously you're going to collect rent and have the right to do so. But if the tenant does not pay and has no money, your only recourse is eviction. Either way, you're not getting your rent money, and you will continue to not get your rent money if the unit remains vacant. It's an investment risk. It's a fairly low risk since very few people ever want to risk eviction, but at a time like this all investments are risky. There is no guarantee that you will get enough rent to cover your mortgage. There is no guarantee that a bank will even get paid back all of its loans (since people can declare bankruptcy).

Maybe "right" wasn't the best word here, but it was in reply to the poster I was quoting.

Landlord here of 2 rental properties. I'm not evicting anyone, we're all gonna feel it and I feel for those folks that have lost jobs because of it.
I've been putting part of the rental income in reserves to cover my mortgage payments for a few months. If this goes on longer than 3 or 4 months, I'll reach out to the servicers of the loans and see if I can skip payments and push the loan terms back a few months w/o affecting my credit. I've got some good renters that have been paying on time and I'm gonna work with them for as long as I can. We'll see what happens.

That's not really salient here. This thread's fundamental purpose is to attack 'based landlords'. Try and tell the major property management firms in Manhattan that they should not really feel obliged to collect rent for their properties any longer because 'times are tough'. And if they try to collect it is because they just want to leech off the downtrodden person, blah blah. You think that they will just sit back and let people spend months in their apartments without having to pay a penny? Just 'eat it'? No.

For someone who doesn't pay - that person will, eventually, be evicted. And:

Imagine how smoothly this would have all gone if everyone was a responsible adult like this. Living within their means, setting aside emergency cash, able to extend a hand to their community because they're not constantly on the verge of going over the edge, maybe even kept some rice and beans in the cabinet and a package of toilet paper in the linen closet instead of a single roll in the entire house.

"IT'S AN EMERGENCY! DON'T GO OUTSIDE FOR A MONTH!"

Cool, see everybody in April.
Nah, fukk that. I’m not doing that.

You said, to be clear, that you 'hope they push too far' because people aren't 'grasping how ugly this could get'. You then backtracked saying that all you meant is that a tenant could tell a landlordto 'piss off' (more on this below). Now, after I called you out for that stupid post like you're trying to pass yourself off as a mature adult with kids who hopes the situation doesn't get too bad? Which one are you?
