If I were about 30 years younger (now 70 and enjoying the fruits of my decades of labor) I'd be hitailing it to Texas ASAP. 

Mike, I think it depends...I will provide two examples.I RENTED large concrete grinding machine for $150 a day for number of reasons:1.

I'm currently a night shift foreman at a machine shop and absolutely hate my job!

Renting an airscrubber with the right filter, ozone machine also works wonders with the sealing of the walls.

Jessica Hood, you are a machine!

If they just cause a smell in the home then I am thinking an ozone machine once they move out and possibly replace carpets (which will need to be done anyway).

I'm new to the machine side of the laundry business and trying to gain a better understanding of cost associated with providing machines in a multi-housing environment, ie: apartments.

All properties cash flow pretty well considering their short payback schedule.Our goals are to build a cash-flow machine through long term buy and hold.

If I were paying the water bill, I would remove every hose bib and also the washing machine supply lines.

You can have an answering machine that sends cash buyers to message a) then credit buyers to message b) and then maybe credit with fat down pmt buyers to message c) You pay a little bit for patlive to set up a secretary that filters your calls and pretty soon you have a prospecting machine to stop all this nonsense that you might go through on a Saturday when you would rather be at the park with your boy. patlive is just an example you could use any type of virtual live secretarial service to accomplish what im talking about.
