A stupid Landlord Mistake

[Carmel Duffy]

With winter here I thought it would be a good idea to buy a snowblower for my rental home. In the lease it states that the tenant is responsible for snow removal, but I thought I would buy the snowblower. I had the tenant sign an addendum with the snowblower added to lease.

Well within one week the snowblower was gone. Stollen from the garage he said. So I told him he owes me $127.00 for the snowblower. I then gave him the name and number of a man who does plowing for $20 which is his responsibility.

My question is what does everyone here do for single homes regarding snow removal?
