Pex can generally survive down to 55 deg F although I've had it survive hard freezes below that.

Most importantly they don't let heating oil run out and pipes freeze, but they also don't tend to have as much of their act together, and don't pay utilities timely and get them turned off.Thoughts on this pro vs. con on utilities? 

The following are some property selection guidelines.Older properties require more maintenance than newer properties.Composition roofs require more maintenance than tile roofs.Properties in climates with hard freezes require more maintenance than properties in mild climates.Properties in locations with a lot of moisture require more maintenance than properties in dryer climates.Wood siding requires more maintenance than aluminum or stucco siding.Properties with lush vegetation require more maintenance than properties with little or no vegetation.Locations with high levels of termite activity will require more maintenance than areas with little or no termite activity.The tenant pool has a significant impact on your ongoing maintenance cost.

So if we were to return to "normal" levels, while there would be a notable increase, it would only look like a "tsunami" to those who forgot what things looked like pre-COVID-19.​Missouri never had a state moratorium (although in Kansas City, a judge did order a freeze on evictions).

This will protect the system & keep them from freezing it over & getting their money back from the booking platform for something they did.. 

I did not see a freeze on my account for reporting fraud to Bank of America, but  they also insisted that we deal with the fraud department not the branch which we quickly did. 

Knock on the door, talk to neighbors, walk the land.You can't estimate repairs until you see your product.Is there moldWater in the cellarIs the drywall in good conditionHas there been a freeze  If you are going to make an offer, go low, very lowYou just don't know what the mortgagors have done to the house before they were foreclosed on.Someone has a key, find that personThis is a great business, but you need to be carefulIf you can't get in until settlement, you may be unpleasantly surprised.  

Furnace broke in the winter, when the temps are hovering around freezing for the next week?

@Ramon CopelandSouth Carolina has freezed evictions through mid-July. 

I go out looking for deals and then freeze.
