If it's C Class is it common for properties to get broken into and have furnaces and water heaters stolen?

I now have a ten-page agreement and it keeps me out of a lot of hot water.

The STR one is 1989 built and needs some Rehab in form of paint, cabinets, appliances, floor, fixtures, water heater etc.

I would just put a few more snap traps around, seal the holes to the exterior that the mice are using to get in and out (sprayfoam is your friend for this), and make sure the tenants remove any food or trash, water, whatever is attracting them.

@Carlos Lopes- thanks  - your points about accelarting the loan  payoff are  accurate ....the main downside to this is that whatever funds you are using  towards the  extra  paydown - wont be able to  work for you in some other  way .... if the  property is treading water  with the min payment being made - let it ride  and the loan will pay down on its own ....and then use your  extra  funds for  other  purposes
