A solid class which has received great reviews. Updated for the issues surrounding tenancy and vacancy surrounding the 2020 climate. We go through the process of terminating a rental agreement both mutually and adversely. This has been updated with COVID-19 details as well as ending a tenancy due to destruction of the rental premises or death of a tenant. This is great for property managers and sales listing agents.  

This class was developed based on some of the feedback I got from "Saying Goodbye to a Tenant". I have been teaching this one for a few years as well. This class goes more in-depth into how to manage owner and tenant expectations when a sales agent, or broker lists a property which is tenant occupied. This class has been updated with COVID-19 details.
