I'm buying in a better area - not the best, but certainly not the worst as would have been the case in Easton.Tenant availability - Easton is in the process of devoting a large sum of money in renovating the Old Silk Mill building into a 148 unit apartment complex.  

Mu grandmother had her house next door to a church parking lot and she had a flower garden under her kitchen window.

Avoid flower words and lengthy justifications.Let her know in advance (60 - 90 days) that you won't be renewing her lease.

I also have some medical issues so I do my own landscaping - it's a form of physical therapy for me and my tenants like the new flowers that sporadically show up.  

Customer (who I had never met) sent flowers to my room.

Somewhere where flowers bloom year-round and negative roi somehow turns into lottery winnings :).

This no longer exists, they DO take fees now.They thought Bitcoin was completely anonymous, all I need to say on that is silk road anyone?

I wouldn't buy fresh cut flowers from someone who dealt in porn or that condones passing along unethical and/or illegal business activities, or conducts it,  it's not about their right to do so, it's about ethics and being a good business citizen.

It was the only room with wallpaper and slightly flowered but not overpowering. 

I changed to a higher pitch roof which gave the home a much larger appearance from the curb, I added a glass wagon wheel to the double garage door, I also added to Windows to the side of the garage to give it more light and also give it a different exterior appearance, and an additional amount of flowers and bushes to the front landscape.
