The main reasons are:- No probate- Significant Tax advantages - no estate taxes- No public disclosure - my teacher said, "keeps from airing their dirty laundry"This is coming from a class and book designed for real estate law in California so your mileage may vary, but that should give you a good gist of why people create trusts.

I just left Active Duty Air Force myself this past summer.

As Josh pointed out, I started investing about two years ago while I was an active duty Air Force Officer.

No matter how many times I send a text reminder to change the air filter it doesnt seem to work.

Here is what I know and I'll post pictures soon as he is going to email them.2/1 12x70Needs floor work in kitchen and living room, outer pane of glass broke in kitchen causing leak, roof needs new coat of Cool Seal (3yrs since done), leak in roof caused floor damage in living room before seal was done, LR and Hall carpet cleaned/replaced, will Not come with heat/air, will Not come with appliances.I will have to move the property because they purchased a new MH.

We do our best to keep the spammers out, so we get to be strict :) So many forums get over run with ridiculous stuff, so BiggerPockets is a breathe of fresh air!

During the eviction process, the tenant complained that she had recently paid for a new furnace (Forced Air Unit) and was angry that she was getting kicked out.After I got I got a chance to go inside the vacant property, I saw that the furnace had been removed.

A comparable dwelling unit:• Is constructed in accordance with the standards of chapter 4 of the 2006 International Energy Conservation Code as such Code (including supplements) was in effect on January 1, 2006,• Has air conditioners with a Seasonal Energy Efficiency Ratio (SEER) of 13, measured in accordance with 10 C.F.R. 430.23(m), and• Has heat pumps with a SEER of 13 and a Heating Seasonal Performance Factor (HSPF) of 7.7, measured in accordance with 10 C.F.R. 430.23(m).All of our AC and heating units are SEER rated 13 or higher, and I found the construction codes for the IECC chapter 4 and in reading them we appear to meet all of those requirements.

I certainly have used Listsource, but also wanted to add some rifle shots to the unsightly, more costly shotgun blasts.

Make sure the vent cap isn't missing or rusted through on the roof, it will cause drafts and wind to blow out the pilot.Also the newer water heaters require more volume of air due to the addition of a heat sensitive diode to the thermocouple so you may need to ensure good air flow esp if it has a captive outside air feed.good luck
