It doesn’t work for me for not only a landlord but for a human being.Yes, that's what I was responding to. He just strikes me as being very misanthropic and that outlook doesn't really work for me for a landlord. JMO.

Man you guys are really putting the fear in me. Now I almost feel like I need to show them a picture of the door to the basement so they can see how impossible it would be to get in there with limited time. We had also been considering getting the property fully enclosed with a tall fence. So maybe that would help as a general deterrent.I wonder if OP realizes that getting the tenants out is no guarantee that they still won't try to make use of the basement in case of a tornado? If they find another home nearby - which seems likely given the school issue mentioned - then they may just try it anyhow, under the right circumstances.

***note to self: cancel neighborhood pizza party scheduled for 4pm Saturday in Tornado86’s basement***I think it’s an unrealistic fear.

As someone already said, your fear is unrealistic. I almost feel like we owe you an apology. This is a legal forum that is supposed to be limited to legal advice, but somehow your thread has veered way off that topic because some people got their "dander up" at the way that you presented yourself. I am pretty certain that the people who gave you a hard time would never give unsupervised access to their homes to virtual strangers just in case a natural disaster ever hit.Man you guys are really putting the fear in me.

And your chastisement of forum members is legal “advice” in what way?… I almost feel like we owe you an apology. This is a legal forum that is supposed to be limited to legal advice …
I was speaking to the OP, not the other members. If you took that as a chastisement that is your issue.And your chastisement of forum members is legal “advice” in what way?
The legality, as a note, was addressed in the first response and reiterated several times after that. Opinions are always offered as a bonus.
You were speaking for the other members, however (“I almost feel like we owe you an apology”). And that is what I take exception to. You can apologize for yourself and what you post all you want.I was speaking to the OP, not the other members. If you took that as a chastisement that is your issue.
Yeah, yeah, yeah. I have already cancelled the pizza party. Geesh.Breaking into someone’s home could get you legally shot in some tornado states or in any weather condition. Just another factor to consider before doing that.
