Insurance renewals have been almost doubling for us. Who do you use and why do you like them? Right now we use American modern insurance group. We have enjoyed them and they are super easy to deal with but the premiums are just too much. We have under 15 doors.

I think they are stacked on top of each other. I have been reading about Green Glue and carpet glue and adding another sheet of quietrock...

Hey Everyone, We built a duplex and are having issues with the shared wall not being soundproof. We have MLV, quietrock and of course type x drywall(2 sheets sandwiched on both sides)total of 4 sheets of fire x and 1 sheet of quietrock. But our long term renter says they can hear everything. Any ideas on how to reduce sound?

Hey everyone, has anyone used Furnished Finder and if so did you have any luck?

 Okay, so... How is everyone setting age requirements and security deposit? I am not seeing where I can add these things on AirBnB. 

 Thank you for your input. They were responsible enough to message me and tell me they were going to a concert and driving 12hours to get here. I might try it and I'll let you all know how it goes if we do decide to allow it.

 WOW, 29... They are actually driving down to go to Rock The South (concert). We literally had this go live yesterday and someone that young( a group of four) makes me a little uneasy. But I also think they will not be at the house that long.    

Thanks for your input. That is most definitely something to keep in mind. 

Hey Everyone, We have just started an airbnb and wanted to get your thoughts on renting to 18 year olds. Has anyone done it? Any advice would be welcomed!

I have a question about returning a deposit. We had a 12 mos lease in the state of Alabama and a tenant left early. They did however continue to pay until it was rerented. Which was 11 days after their last day. They paid the full month and I am returning the rent for the prorated time of rent. So they are receiving a refund for days 12-31. 

We also have in our lease that there is an early termination/cancellation fee. The fee is the amount of thier security deposit. Am I liable to refund their deposit as well, minus deductions for damages? Side note-we had to have the driveway pressure washed because they had a transmission that dumped all the fluid and oil in the driveway. Which will not come up.
