The professional tenants share this kind of info in some circles, and all they have to do is call with the suspicion that their usage is less than their bill, and they utility will send a tech to inspect all circuits. 

I thought an easy turn-key rental was a safe first purchase, and Bossier City where I bought isn't an expensive market and has Barksdale Air Force Base, strong growth and new tech jobs moving in.

So got some time left Seems right - on track for 2020 to 2022 recession, depending on macro (jobs, tariffs, trade wars, wars, winning etc) and local conditions (RE is local - so oversupply, quality of housing stock, employment type and  opportunities in high tech etc)

My Dad was a structural engineering graduate from Virginia Tech with experience as a field supervisor for Ryan Homes.

I taught at New Tech Odessa High School, now it's called George Bush High School, I think.

If you want other HVAC techs opinions go to HVAC-TALK.com and post a question in the home owner section.

Maybe a tech issue?

One situation probably warrants an emergency call and one probably does not.What if your vacation was in July when it was 100 degrees outside and your tenant calls and says the AC is out on a Sunday and he's demanding you call an emergency repair tech because he's hot and uncomfortable. 

There are some amazing networking opportunities here...I highly suggest getting involved with REIN (Main meeting is this Monday at Tech Hill Commons) What I like most about the Nashville Market: You can buy a house in the ghetto with bad loud neighbors, or backing up to railroad tracks, fix it up, and it will still sell day 1 with multiple offers right now. 

As more and more tech companies allow employees to telecommute or work from home, Sacramento and Stockton will explode.
