One tenant hasn't paid since March, and another hasn't paid June yet. My rental income is what I live on. I'm not planning to evict anyone. I'm just hoping for the best. I was hoping that some rent aid would happen, or maybe a way for landlords to be compensated.

All I'm saying is that for small-time landlords like myself, this is devastating.
