I miss those 70-80 degree days we'd get in the middle of December!

Hey BP, i hope all of you are staying warm, it's 15 Degrees here in VA and i wanted to share a video I made recently.

What a goof-ball state.And 475.42 states that the penalty for violating the law (say, if you did buy your own property) is 'a misdemeanor of the second degree, punishable as provided in s. 775.082 or s. 775.083'.http://www.leg.state.fl.us/Statutes/index.cfm?

Also, you will have really high utility bills, because your guests will leave the heat at 75 degrees with the window open.You will also have to either get a management company or deal with marketing, reservations, contracts, receiving payments from guests, security deposits, housekeepers, maintenance, keys, etc yourself.

She has heat upstairs but the downstairs temperature will only go to 68 degrees.

The plumber who fixed the pipes said that leaving a couple faucets on just the smallest trickle and the heat on to at least 55 degrees would have saved the pipes.

It doesn't take a four year degree to say so tell me a little about your situation and what you are hoping I can do for you?

Assuming you have a clause in your lease requiring the tenant to maintain adequate heat in the apartment (usually 50 degrees F), and that the lease also states she/he is responsible for any damages resulting from failure to do so, to collect reimbursement you still might need documentation showing that the pipe burst due to freezing, and that it wasn't an improperly soldered fitting that failed on the day she notified you.
