Presumably the dry cleaner uses chlorinated solvents (many now use petroleum-based chemicals which are "greener"). 

If dry cleaning chemicals are on site I would definitely get a Phase I.

Chris Mason, in my opinion, the 50% rule is irrelevant in most high-rent markets such as you'd find in many parts of California (and elsewhere in the country), and its irrelevance in California is amplified by Proposition 13.There's no way that a 3/2 SFR renting for $3,000 in Orange County or the Bay Area or a suburb of LA is going to have three times the expenses over the long-haul as a similar house renting for $1,000 in Indy or Cleveland with its lower-quality tenants and harsher weather conditions, which is what someone blindly applying the 50% rule to each property would come up with.

They were purchased by Chemical bank during our transaction so it wasn't too smooth.

When buying farm or orchard land for houses, do you have sois tests done to determine pesticide/herbacide or other toxic chemicals, including waste dumps or ponds, or overuse of manures?

I have a house on well and septic , the tenant pays for septic tank pumping once a year , and the tenant pays for water softener chemicals ( if not they have iron in their water)

Hello all, Here's a quote I received for some HVAC work that needs to be done on my rental property:Remove and chemically clean evaporator coil - $345.00Seal and clean return box - $145.00Seal supply plenum - $99.0045/5 mfd dual run capacitor - $85.00Would you say this is a fair price for the work needed?

There will be routine sampling (microbiological and chemical) required and a certified operator must be hired to make daily chlorine checks on the water system.
