I like to think of it as putting a dollar bill on a string, giving it to the vending machine, grabbing a snack, and then pulling it out (but without the stealing!)

That does suck and you can’t focus on the showing if you’re worried about what kids will destroy.I think next time you should bring snacks for kids to keep them occupied and have them be less destructive. :)

The company was branded Quibi (Quick Bites), but it sounds more like a “quinoa-based doggy snack,” or worse, “the cry of an attacking Ewok.”

I sold it 4 1/2 years later for $48,900.Photos on RedFin show the front yard my dad and I terraced and the built in snack bar with shelves my dad built for me. 

Hi Joe,If it were mine I'd replace the rocks with more pavers and hit the pavers with a defoliant to get rid of the weeds.Since you live there too, a nice BBQ might be tasty addition.And a lemon tree means free lemon-aid and lemon meringue pie, as well as tradable with the neighbors fruit, for oranges, avocados and olives (but you have to scout the area for who has those trees).Good Luck!

.• Be generous with free stuff — wine, mints on the pillows, chocolates, fruit baskets, snacks.

Hi Yacine,Maybe pay a younger relative to sit on the stoop all day (or the one next door) and take pics of whoever is doing it.Go drop off lunch and snacks to check on the progress, and to allow for breaks (and it may be more than one culprit).Good Luck!

That kind of money, on top of all the expenses of operation (laundry, snacks, etc.) can really eat in to potential profits.However, it can still pay your mortgage and all utilities fairly easily. 

If 10 isn't tasty then what is bold enough to make it happen. 11?

Tasty.
