I was consistently nailed for loose hand rails, smoke detectors with the batteries taken out, Fire extinguishers out of date or not in place, loose door knobs, typical renter mentality stuff, the lines in the parking lot were not dark enough one year.

btw, 2K is what some people spend in cigarettes in 6 months... yuck!

But if I had to start again with no money - this would ethically work 4 me because no hype, smoke and mirrors.Mark

I'm actually concerned the house was not winterized as I never saw any smoke coming from the vents.Anyhow, as I had mentioned, I saw the foreclosure noticed posted.

Maybe she's supplying the stuff their smoking on Capitol Hill, it would certainly explain a lot.

Broken door knob, smell of cigarettes, messy, etc. 

Hi @Yuriy Skripnichenko,  It has always been mine and my partners rule to leave instructions for anything mechanical we provide, such as smoke detectors, microwave, etc., in the units for the tenants.  

This is a smoking hot great deal — for her !

THE REHAB:2 Bathroom remodelsNew Flooring in Living and HallwayDining room converted into 4th bedroomMisc Updates/RepairsLandscaping & Tree RemovalNot quoted on paper but discussed/agreed to include in total price: replace 4 ceiling fans, replace exterior door, add door to formal dining room, install misc items (i.e. smoke alarms, wall outlets where needed, light fixtures, etc)Original quote included a complete interior repaint (walls/ceilings/cabinets/trim/doors); it was $4.5k.

A tenant will leave for 25$ increase .. of coarse they won’t bat an eye if their cigarettes go up to 8 bucks a pack or beer prices go up
