When other people break their promises, the responsibility falls on us to compensate.The only thing that was risked by your action was a minor irritation to the tenants which, if true, would probably have had no impact on their existing stockpile of free-floating irritation.

@Jason HirkoFirst 15 years fixed at 4% with balloon payment at end of year 15......In a way, it is similar to ARM program, but instead of floating rates after the fixed period, it balloons..... 

There is also a plumber coming out to check the storm drain to make sure that no debris is blocking our connection to the street, and we are also investigating if there is a option to have a float valve to be installed to prevent this from happening in the future.

Yeah, you might find the occasional overpriced stinker property that's got 120DOM and float 'em a lowball, but as an overall strategy for non-stinker properties, it doesn't work in a market where nearly everything is selling above ask.

Specifically the S-Corp has to keep annual meeting minutes and the IRS tax deadline is March 15 vs April 15th...which is a pain because all my taxes have to be done then in order to finish off the silly S-corp.There are a bunch of articles out there, but take a look at the LLC, it's going to be your best option in my opinion.Also draft an operating agreement...every time I form a partnership we identify 1) how to arbitrate a dispute (We have a trusted family member and a real estate mentor, both are named as potential arbitors in our agreement). 2) Dissolution...how the partnership gets split if it doesn't work out.I heard a joke one time...the only ship that doesn't float is the Partner-Ship...I avoid forming them and have ended up buying out 2 of the three I've formed in the real estate world.

As others have pointed out, selecting carpet and a thick padding, or adding insulation, or additional sheetrock, will help do this.To address the vibration through the structure, you need to provide an isolation layer, which can be a floating floor on isolators or a dedicated acoustic ceiling hanging from springs (these can be complicated and expensive).I've been involved with a few projects in NYC where we added an isolation layer, but these were for noisy workout studios below and above apartments, NOT for stacked or adjacent apartments.

This model opens automatically with floats as opposed to pressure which prevents rodents from entering the building on a normal day.Different vents cover different areas.

A lot of them have been in the game for many years... many many years... if you catch my drift!

I bought rentals in Mississippi.. they were new construction.. for gozone benefits and I chose homes with concrete floors.. best thing I ever did.. of course these are also A class.. with 1400 to 1600 rents.. so no section 8... and not a ton of little kids.but I have had them 11 years now and its been wonderful.. not sure what it would take to retro fit and float concrete in your single level rentals.. but that stuff works.. and if they get stained you simply paint them
