In regards to tenants, you can run a credit and get references, but unless your truely gifted....you can never know what your tenants will or won't do and how they behave until there in. we have been very lucky, but we do have a contract that explains if you screw up, and we are charged for your issues...in regards to the home, if we have to pay....we will bill you..the tenants.
this happens all the time in our rentals in tally......if the renters leave there garbage on the deck, the HOA sends us a nasty gram...we call it....and naturally i am on the phone with the tenant letting him know.....fix the problem.
In florida tenants rights are to the extreme, on the tenants favor, in my opinion and once there in, it takes a lot to get them out...
In regards to land owner taking responsibilty...for the renters....thats a given....The HOA or in the villages "the powers that be" would naturally blame the homeowner......the fines charged for discrepancies would go to the homeowners not the renters....The HOA doesnt know who you rented to...usually....they just know theres a problem and the homeowner must take care of it....
