But consider your lifestyle and what you want to have access to while you are living there and also where the tenant pool is strong and demand is high.

Also study costs of roof replacements, furnaces and water heaters.

Are there signs of water intrusion on the inside of the structure? 

She didn't think the case holds much water but it could be very time consuming resulting in high fees.

Quote from @Cathy Pool: Eugelo,Just read your story, and welcome to my world! 

Partnerships pool resources and reduce cash needed.

The water is always cold, but at least in the summer it is nice outside of the water and the winter air temps are probably higher than the Tahoe winter air temps. 

Plus its a non stop location for tourism Summer Camping, White Water Rafting, Rock climbing, 4 Wheeler/ATV, Hunting, Fishing.Winter - Ski, Snowboard, Tube, Ice Fishing, Hunting, Winter Breaks away from the Heat etc.

The reason I ask if it used to ascertain damage to something on the lot (water/sewer/utilities hookups or something) and you don't have pics and mutually signed documentation from the lessor/lessee upon each tenant's move in prior to your ownership, would you be able to justify a charge upon move out?

Of course, the wear and tear was through the roof and the water heater or HVAC never seemed to perform to his liking when it is summer and you have 14 breathing, walking talking 98.6F meat-sicles in the house warming it up.
