When flipping there's many things that can come up out of your control that can prolong your progress and therefore your investors might begin to get impatient with getting their return.

It's a good investment, as it will prolong the lifespan of water heater, some appliances (dishwasher, washing machine) and fixtures like faucets and maybe toilets.A. is ridiculous, as hard water is clean water.

. :)First, I wrote this loooong post on tax strategies and on abusing them.

@John Lubin If it solves your problem and gets rid of the tenant $1000 is short money and I’d pay that in a heartbeat to not have a prolonged issue.

Normally the tenants understand.If you're having consistent issues with a tenant abusing the HVAC only (if they are abusing other items then it may be helpful to find a new tenant), I know some HVAC companies offer an annual plan with a certain number of visits per year at a flat fee.

In my area it is common for landlords to pay for heat which promotes a lot of abuse with the system in that tenants keep the heat at unreasonably high temperatures and often open the windows in the dead of winter when it can be -20 out.

Likewise, the Fed will not hold interest rates high for a prolonged period of time (but the next couple of years will see them elevated I guess)… In the short term they will continue to raise them to continue to combat inflation.  

They are also doing a 3 day event (which they do 3 times a year) for $39 which includes a bus trip. 

This is abuse of tax payers to be honest.

These are very smart people who can prolong the process indefinitely.
