RIGHT that's going to happen the poor things would melt in an hour...

We are looking at a 600k property with a nice rent roll but we must stop while we are ahead, the debt snowball we are creating needs to melt down a little before we pick up our next one!

This mitigates a market melt down.. you have a loan on a MFR that is due in 5 to 7 years and we are in a pronounced down market with credit slow or frozen.. you could face foreclosure just like what happened in 08 to 2011.. even cash flow properties were lost because of balloon payments..  

Any vinyl flooring you use will be susceptible to scratches, cuts, and even melting if they set something hot on it.

Not if your frontal cortex is melted when you arrive home after nine hours of repetitive bullsh** floating in a stew of mediocrity and your days off are spent watching the minute hand spiral toward the inevitability that you must once again return to imbibe of said stew the next day.

Also, empower tenants with a bucket (some brands come in boxes) of ice melt, one at each door (few will shovel, but most will throw ice melt on their porch between your shoveling intervals)..Whatever you do (DIY or contractor), have a plan in place and reasonable maintenance intervals (like biweekly mowing, or shoveling with 2'' or more, inspecting for ice etc) and don't just rely on the kindness of strangers (or tenants) to do it.

Sadly, a third person, with the best of intentions, hooked up an extension cord to a hair dryer to melt the ice sickles caused by damming.

It looks like they melted.
