True, but there's very little you can do to spot bad debt building up - my friend's ex-tenant is being chased by British Gas, Council Tax, NatWest, 3 debt collection agencies, Yell.com, DVLA, Congestion Charge and a timber merchant....
It makes the new tenant want to give up and leave, which is a shame as they seem quite good, and it lives a really nasty smell hanging over the house...
