I have pets myself (in truth I participate in pet rescue and foster) so I'm probably nose blind but even after getting any carpet professionally steam cleaned and after running an ozone machine in the room(s) I'll have an applicant with no pets) walk in and ask if there have been pets in the place before.As previously suggested, make certain your insurance covers certain breeds of pets.

I'm not so creative, but I can definitely put my nose to the grindwheel.I'm ready to work, however now I only have nights and weekends, but am willing to use them to accomplish this lifestyle.

It's fine if you do -- no skin off my nose!

I've been poking my nose around in books, BiggerPockets, and a couple other Canadian forums/webinars.
