Water is now leaking through the ceiling into my tenant's unit, and it's worsening with every rain also the neighboring unit has sever water damage (like a pool inside and it is owned by the HoA) and water from it leaking very dirty water from the shared wall to mine.

I tied up $65k of my investment money for 3 years and sold a property after a judgement for a 5.8% return.

@John Friendas Without knowing the expenses and costs associated with it I can’t make an educated judgement.

Eventually it will rain, the toxic soot will seep into the soil and makes it's way into the rivers and oceans.

Effectively a 'Firestorm' is a dry hurricane that rains fire, with nearly indefensible circumstances, just like the catastrophic flooding, hurricanes, tornadoes and other disasters they have and will intensify in severity and rapidity.Beyond directly impacted property owners, investors, insurers and businesses, the downhill effects of the SoCal fires on the immediate and surrounding areas are astronomical and still somewhat incomprehensible.

ie, wind damages the roof and that lets in rain that damages sheetrock, floors, furnishings,...   

I know this sounds a bit like a weather forecast - "Sunny with a chance of rain" - but my crystal ball seems to be on the fritz right now.Best regards, Stevan

But, I'm fairly risk averse, and do live in a heavily tenant leaning area as far as regulations and court judgements. 

Tenant already owes this dude $6,000 in rent that the dude is ready to write off because the tenant is judgement proof.Smart thermostat to limit tempature?

They have forced me to find a lawyer in Florida in order to get a judgement against them.
