It is possible that when someone does eventually buy the property that they will tear down the fence and not replace it.

Also, if you are doing tear downs and or large additions n higher end markets, you can’t use the same template each time for everything, but you can for some items (paint colors for instance).It is efficient to have name, description, item numbers, etc on a spreadsheet of items you typically buy which makes ordering materials quick and easy.

The longer you rent — and at a loss to boot — the longer you expose yourself to vacancies, wear and tear, or (God forbid) an HOA assessment or litigation.

To me that all adds up to more time and stress on managing my tenants, and potential cost on damage or wear and tear.

Then, if your tenant substantially damages the property beyond normal wear and tear (the one's I've dealt with were broken windows, ripping out the flooring, removing wiring from the walls, etc) it's easy to prove with timestamped pictures.

You may end up having to tear the thing down to the studs and rebuild 80% of the place. 

Tear down a possibility or slap some paint on it and be doneSo many different possible goals so many different ‘correct’ areas to invest in

Just reading how you have bent over backyards for this person brought tears to my eyes.

The home has not been lived in since 1998 so it may be a tear down.

I'm writing a notice of the increase.Should I just create a notice without citing the reason, or list the reason as something like "anticipated wear & tear, etc.?
