Below is some copy & paste info about our methodology:----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------Recommend you first figure out the property Class you want to invest in, THEN figure out the corresponding location to invest in.Property Class will typically dictate the Class of tenant you get, which greatly IMPACTS rental income stability and property maintenance/damage by tenants.If you apply Class A assumptions to a Class B or C purchase, your expectations won’t be met and it may be a financial disaster.If you buy/renovate a property in Class D area to Class A standards, what quality of tenant will you get?

The home was in rough shape—think mold, a hole in the roof, and years of water damage.

In your example, $250 in utility bills is much cheaper than $2500 to fix frozen-pipe damages!

If all this billions upon billions upon billions of damage WAS because of carbon caused climate change.....

You want to make sure they are properly installed and you don't want tenants moving large appliances in and out of the house as it will cause damage. 

If these type of damages occur in the future, I would recommend holding the tenants deposit, or if there is a claim to be made through the insurance you sell them you could approach that avenue.

If the neighbor owns a dog or has other reason that even a temporary dismantling could be problematic, you'll want to let them know that the fence is being replaced so they can mitigate any damage to your property or crew while it is being replaced.Hope this helps...

All Landlords risk tenants damaging the home, but a NICE home attracts NICE tenants so the fact that you've made the home very NICE means you should be able to take your pick of applicants.

b) How do they (Cali Govt) deal with the damage, both in terms of who gets the blame and also where do they get the money?

His God complex and giant ego won't allow him to reflect on the damage he's done  keep in mind if the SEC detects a serious issue and one that could harm investors right now they have the power to take emergency action and shut them down.
