My tenant is on permanent disability (an older gentleman who does everything in cash since he cashes his disability check the day it arrives and doesn't use plastic/checks) so it didn't seem like a big deal to accommodate receiving payment in cash. :)@Liz C. - I do have liability insurance, but I'm hoping I won't be needing any of it, per the update from the tenant's PI Lawyer.

Just because you could do surgery on yourself doesn't mean you should.

Mindy Jensen suggested medical tourism.Thanks for readingChindayes I see the signs for cosmetic surgery all over the roads here .. can't mention them in this forum as taste and decorum probably would be violated..

They are both older, have a hard time walking around, both morbidly obese, and the male is recovering from heart surgery.

Plastic blinds are the worst...the string pull mechanisms are junk; vertical blinds self-destroy themselves between constant motion from wind, and cheap plastic hanger guides.I have NEVER had a prospective Tenant comment negatively due to no curtains, and certainly never had one say it was a deal breaker.

The chips on the cabinet door edges are wear and tear.I would say hard use of the unit, but wear and tear.The paint chips on painted cabinets sometimes, and the plastic film peels back on the coated type sometimes.If you have trouble making them look nice, perhaps you can get replacement doors.For apartment use I think the easiest to blend in repairs is the old oak type.To many this look is dated, but in some neighborhoods this would be an acceptable (clean roomy) rental.

Last year I dropped $10k on surgery to fix my dogs blown out knee and subsequent rehab visits.

I used to get as many as 5 calls per week to repair garbage disposer, or unclog them and now I get zero calls from my tenants for disposer because I removed all of them and told the tenants to wrap their garbage in plastic bags. 

I have mentors in my Baltimore network who I look up to, who also rely on me for things - so they benefit in return out of what I like to call social currency, not financial currency.I think organic, non-transactional relationships are more fun in terms of growth - I am no expert here but am hoping this helps If you were going in for surgery (pick the reason), would you want your surgeon to have their knowledge come mainly (if not exclusively) from the internet, ir would you feel better if they were trained by successful, experienced people?

Provide 3mil thick large plastic bags, boxes, etc. to make their move easier.
