Leaky Window
I have a rental property that has a window on a wall with no roof overhang. When there is a really windy thunderstorm the rain hits the window directly and leaks. I called a company that installs awning and they wanted over $700. The window is approximately 2'x2'. I had a couple of ideas but wanted to hear from more experienced investors. One idea was to have a gutter installed on that part of the roof line where there's no overhang. The other thought was to replace the window. I've heard window replacement is expensive but have not done any research. Any advice is appreciated.
