Of course it's simplistic, but it's the primary factor if your choice as a landlord is between forgiving rent for a few months for a proven restaurant, or evicting them and looking for a new unproven tenant.

Again, landlords can forgive rent, and in this situation, it's in their best interest to do so. Sure not all of them, but the smart ones will.
- JoeAltmaier 6y agoI'm wondering how long landlords can hang on, with no income. They can 'go belly up' too.
- learc83 6y agoVery true. But in that case it moves up the chain to the bank to forgive mortgage payments, or for the government to hold off on collecting property tax. The same logic holds for them as it does for the landlords. Better to deal with people who are proven to pay in all but the most extreme circumstances.
