Wowww😮.... T-h-a-t is a very large dog! Without going into too much detail, my ex-husband once had a dog like that. He got himself into a little legal trouble with the neighbors, complaints, court visits. The dog eventually bit & killed a smaller dog, so he was court ordered to pay penalties, face charges, plus get rid of the dog.

Here's a curious 🤔 question, can you switch to a different more effective Property Manager or management company? Or is this Not a good practice?

WoW! Great tip👍. I will remember that since I'm a newbie!

Quote from @Nathan Gesner:

The best protection? Strong screening, strong rules, regular inspections, strong enforcement.

I manage up to 400 rentals and about 150 of them have pets. I have bad pet damage once every 3-4 years.


 WoW! Great advice!

Very Good Points! I think I'll look into reading that book before I start out as a Landlord of a 4-plex.

Would something similar to that like animal infestation be written or included in a Landlord/ Tenant contract or Lease? Idk 🤷. Just curious!

Suchhhh a great question! I will eventually be investing in 4- plex multi-family units. I've often wondered the same thing; where and how to find a Good Property Mgr?
