Life as a Landlord During COVID-19

Life as a Landlord During COVID-19

Author: Tracey Benson October 6, 2020 Duration: 30:55

Coming up on our eighth month of lockdown, things have shifted monumentally in many aspects of our lives. Both economically and emotionally, we are feeling taxed by the weight of everything going on right now and many tenants in the Real Estate sector have fallen victim to evictions on top of the already stressful restrictions that Covid-19 has put on all of us.   


It’s been a logistically difficult time for both tenants and landlords respectfully. Today, I’m going to be sharing my perspective on how lockdown has affected myself as a Property Manager, my side of the ongoing tenancy agreements I have with my clients, why I value consistency, and why empathy is so important for us to practice right now.
