i manage 100 units, shit suck right now. i'm in a very "tenant friendly" state where property owners have essentially no rights once someone has lived there for a 30 consecutive days. i had someone who owed $18k in rent and completely trashed the place, had to strip it to the studs, zero recourse. we've had to implement some stupid in-depth screening process now because we have to only take the very best of the very best hoping they decide to pay their rent and leave without trashing the place. people, by law, straight up don't have to pay late charges and if they are making any payments you can't kick them out. you're obligated to accept any single dollar they want to pay towards rent and just add the rest to their tab. i've had to become a total asshole about everything just so i can have enough documentation to kick people out of other reasons.
