[WSBARP] Landlord Question

[Roger Moss]

> How best to approach such tenant who seems to be taking advantage of the moratorium.

Sangeeta, 

Possible answers depend on hearing information not in your question. And for the reasons Rob Rowley laid out this morning, “approaches” at this time should be elliptical, grounded in sleuthing and soft skills, more than other things.

Consider consulting with a professional neutral experienced in tenant - landlord dispute navigation.
