Tenants From Hell

Being a landlord is scary! You never know how people will treat your property once they move in. Background checks only tell you so much and what you don't know - can come back to haunt you!

Some tenants from hell will not pay on time or once they are in they stop paying. This is a heavy financial burden on the landlord for they would have to cover the cost of the mortgage if there is one on the property. The eviction process can take months to complete and by then you could ruin your credit and be in financial ruin.

Worse then not paying the rent is actually damaging your property. Carpets and floors get ruined, mold grows in basements and bathrooms, broken windows and doors, leaks that are not fixed, and much more. It could cost you thousands to get the property back into shape for your next tenant
