Really good things are just not available to the arm chair investor.

Elsewhere, clumps of debris appear: a crumpled living room chair, a television, a forgotten pair of shoes."

Some ideas: 1) put mini fridge, desk, chair, wardrobe, bed in each room. 2) Buy all common stuff such as toiletries, kitchen utensils, cleaning stuff.Cleaning: Arrange cleaning service twice a month at landlord's expense, this not only keeps the house in great condition but also can be leveraged to inspect the house.Laws: City of Seattle allows upto 8 unrelated persons in a SFH, so does Redmond and Bothell.

It just looks so pretty in the pictures with those chairs down by the water & those kayaks ready to paddle at sunset!

As long as I can remember where I stashed the box every 6 months or so there just seems to be enough in there to buy another pig.I still live in my own home but when I remodeled it years ago I did put the master on the ground floor and put 36" doors in so I wouldn't skin my hands wheeling the chair around. 

Shake a hand make a friend kind of thing.And a good excuse to put in that beautiful in ground pool you've (maybe) always wanted (tents and chairs are rentable).

I would most defiantly bring at least a folding chair, standing is hard on the feet.

We did a house where the lady - a 3-pack/day smoker - sat in her favourite chair in the corner of the living room and smoked for the last 20-yrs of her life.  

If you've already got a great master, then with a space that big you could put two awesome bunk beds in there to get you 4 sleeping spaces, and on the other end a kid-geared game room - big tv with video games and gaming chairs, pinball, skeeball, basketball, air hockey, etc.
