The Problem
Quote: “At Good Life, we meet a lot of landlords that end up overwhelmed, stressed, and in need of advice. Oftentimes landlords can develop friendships with their tenants, which can lead to potential problems... When you become friends with a tenant, they can start to take advantage of you... It’s harder to say no when you consider yourself friends, and your tenants know this.”
