I don’t think you understand how California courts work. They already lean in the tenants favor.

It's the opposite in Texas. I think maybe both states might be extremes as well? At any rate, my 3 renters all paid. The one who is usually early, but who I thought might be most likely to rent strike drug it out to the 3rd which is the last day before racking up fines.

There is an eviction moratorium in TX until the 20th but you can start filing and get a judgement before that date. Then send the constable out on the 20th to kick they ass out. If they lose their job use their fucking credit card like I did so many times years ago. One thing I didn't do was rent a fucking large house! I spent several years living in a dog house like studio then moved up slowly (1-year in 2bdrm apartment now) from there as I could pay rent AND save. They can go live in a cheap apartment fuck them if they don't pay.

I used to rent out SFL of the 3bed, 2.5 bath, 2car garage variety in nice neighborhoods. I had the same attitude as you - if you cannot afford my house, move out to something cheaper. I purposely avoided buying low end houses to rent out.
