The entire MBS industry melting down and thought it would all snap back? 

The ice will melt and  cool will circulate.

IMO not worth it and not fair to the tenant who's probably melted into a liquid soup by now anyway.In the future I recommend replacing your system in the winter.

I know this is a bit old of a thread but interested to know how markets have changed since the thread has started..I invest in Canada and live in the US.Canadian market has been considerably steady the last 20 years...no major melt downs and most people have seen properties double in that time frame.

A meter keeping track of all the mortgage companies that have "Imploded" in all the mortgage melt down mess.

@Jonathan Dick    as I reflect on this and since I am a NMLS licensed mortgage banker ( currently inactive) in Oregon.I still take all my CE and one of the big components of CE is the predatory lending that caused the huge melt down..

Lately in my Facebook I have seen posts for plug in stair heater treads and plug in walk way mats to melt snow and ice.

Reduced home maintenance: Rising hot air in an uninsulated attic can lead to snow melt and then to ice dam buildup.

There have been several here at BP who have stated that when they provide an applicant with a form to take to their medical provider to state the need for an ESA, the entire idea of this falls through the cracks like a marshmallow melting in the heat.While it is easy to purchase one of those fake "ESA certificates" online a landlord does NOT have to accept this as either adequate or accurate evidence that the animal in question is, in fact, an Emotional Support Animal.  

We always quote that we have 300 days of sun per year - so while we have snow here, it melts quickly and we are well equipped to handle any issues with snow (clearing roads, ect).
