Are we really here to discourage the people who are taking bold action and/or going after their dreams because we project our own fears on them or because we don't want to see them succeed because deep inside of ourselves, we want to invest internationally but don't dare doing and so the last thing we want is to see other people successfully doing it.I see repeated negative posts from the same people (not those who replied here thus far) from people in the international forum and I'm left wondering why they're hanging in the international forum if they're negative about international investing.By the way, even though I totally disagree with him on this matter, I have to command @John Carbone for writing in all honesty "I haven't researched ...

Hi @John Carbone - The homeowner will typically have insurance through Proper Insurance.

They pay the bill, no chance of gas or carbon monoxide leaks and no pilot that might need to be relit.

Minna-I have decided to clean up the software I use which is an Excel Based form that creates near carbon copies of the HUD 1.

I would like to have it removed if possible, I am not sure why it is up there but now that @Matt Bacenet brings up the possibility of it also being a CO alarm...it makes sense.I will double check this when I am home later today.If I suspected it to be Carbon Monoxide, would I need to reach out to the Fire Department?

@McKinley Carbone - Scented mailers! 

Are you SURE the property manger's HVAC guy is giving you good advice and you really need a new system-- you don't just need a new blower motor, filter, or to just clean the carbon off the contact thing?

Both the Broker and the employing broker need to be aware of state and local laws that impact the performance of property management duties, which include, but are not limited to, laws pertaining to security deposits, habitability, carbon monoxide alarms, asbestos, lead-based paint, handling of confidential information, zoning and agency."

@Kevin Carbon and @Troy Fisher are hosting a meetup for BP members tonight (Monday, Oct 19) in Lakewood.

I would change them all from oil heat to electric baseboard , Reasons : No oil furnace to clean , repair , or maintain , reduced liability of a oil spill , no chimney to clean or repair , no carbon monixide . the tenants can get budget billing from the electric company , same payments every month. with multible baseboard heaters , its unlikely all will break at once .
