If a neighborhood kid sneaks in for a swim and is injured, the owner could be liable, even if the kid was trespassing.I wouldn't pass on the property just because it has a pool.

I own landscaping companies, for both commercial and residential, and apartment complexes are on of my customer groupings, and I guarantee you your snow removal is NOT 0.00.The legal liabilities from one person getting injured alone isnt worth the risk, that I promise you.

Animals owned by tenants can injure workers.

I don't want to diminish the idea of keeping ourselves safe, but if you look at how many showings there are across the country compared to the number of incidents like this I'd say you're probably more likely to be injured or killed on the drive to the showing.

The last thing you want/need is this tenant to be injured while doing such work, only to find your liability insurance will deny the claim based upon such an “arrangement”.Also, if you are rehabbing and flipping houses, do not purchase the materials foryour contractors as this too will imply an employee/employer relationship.Get your bid.Pay your contractor and have him buy his own materials based on the bid.

After all this, no attempts where made to remove  ice.the lady who is injured asked our management company for the insurance information to file a claim.

If you are "not using your insurance" does that mean you are not carrying general liability on this job, and therefore the investors could be held liable if you or one of your workers was injured on the job?     

Tara, unfortunately, he was badly injured in the attack.
