Are we talking business, or personal? Yes, it hurts; but the ability to mitigate that risk is there for any responsible landlord. The landlord has all the consideration about what type of property to invest in, how to structure their payments, how to increase rent or continue renting at old prices, etc.. The tenant has no ability once they move into a place.

All my experience is in the midwest, where there are essentially no renter protections.
