Before we even moved in, I had to get the master bathroom shower working (the valve had become 'frozen' by mineral deposits from untreated well water -- neglect from the previous owner). 

I would imagine, liability wise, daycare is just below coal miners.

I'll start.Real Estate - property comprised of land and the buildings on it as well as the natural resources of the land including uncultivated flora and fauna, farmed crops and livestock, water and minerals.
