Hose is connected to hose bib during freezing temperatures, causing the water pipe inside the house to freeze and split.All of these are tenant-caused issues and should be charged to the Tenant.

Pipes can freeze to if the heat isn't on (also have too many stories on that).

If there is any standing water in the lines, when the temperature drops below freezing, that water will freeze and expand, likely bursting the line while doing so.3.

I was able to get out because the listing agent advertised "move in condition" and REO reports found after the property went under contracte revealed damage from freezing.

I think what most of them were saying is not to just freeze and do nothing until they have a big buyers list.The negative side of it is if they don't know how to even promote a deal when having no buyers.

With the weather we've gotten here, I'm sure there are people that got hit with a car that wouldn't start and freezing pipes bursting at the same time...sprinkle in some medical bills and you could really be hurting.If it were a 12% interest only loan then I'd say pay it off immediately.

That water heater might have some latent damage too if it was filled with water during the freeze; when a home up north gets winterized, the water heaters are drained.

Winter buying may bring the best deals as I remember it's freezing up there.

Winter is especially bad because washers need to be winterized before just stuffing in a garage to store you don't want pump to crack from freezing.. 

It has started dropping below freezing at night in my area and I am concerned about pipes bursting.
