Hardware is being replaced as well.

And if it does, the parents will already expect to be getting their wallets out (and having a second talk with their kids!).

I don't think all of the energy efficient hardware in the world could make up for utilities that are careless with utilities-- and if you include utilities, they will be.

My rentals are in a couple of areas that people I work with (I'm a software/hardware engineer) might say they wouldn't go into.

Fixing the awning windows hardware.. and so on.

I try to keep tenants from spending on bad ideas so I can capture a larger wallet share.

I wrote my check on 8-25-2012 and carry it in my wallet.

To me painting cabinets is covering up older ones to make them pop again and put new hardware on.Real wood cabinets the stain would show the beauty of the wood unless you are buying cheap particle board type stuff which I would understand painting them.

Yes, it is true Android runs across a wider spectrum of hardware devices and, consequently, Android apps, need be aware of the platform on which they are running and adjust themselves (display size, networking options, specific hardware devices{GPS, NFC} etc) accordingly.Despite the fact iOS runs on a much smaller, more uniform, set of hardware devices, good development practice would see the same platform awareness measures taken.Fortunately for you, unless you have a specialized need, there are library APIs on both platforms which assist your app to adjust itself to the platform on which is it running.I will admit, I have not played with the BP iOS app to see how it was implemented, but I cannot imagine it requiring anything out of the routine (i.e no special hardware or low-level access required).

Guru seminars are far more likely to leave you with an empty wallet than make you a millionaire.
