If I ever find myself in tenant combat again I think I'll call you.

By far the best ways I've heard to combat this is water mark all photos with your contact info, rent amount (potentially) and potentially the address as well.

Yes go ahead and report them to DPOR if they are agents but the lesson here is real estate is a hand to hand combat even when you have turned the property over to the best people. 

They install water and energy solutions -- aerators, low flow toilets, and other things to combat expenses...take a look into them if you have time.  

You have the ability to increase the value of a larger asset that will generate more revenue and combat vacancy much better than a SFR.

I am currently in the US Army as a Combat Engineer but will be exiting the Army late 2022.

How do you combat something like that happening?

Just had that happen to me, as I was studying abroad and my roommates failed to take pictures upon move-out, so we have next to nothing to combat a $600 cleaning fee with (that's for a 1 level, 3 bedroom house, btw, and the carpet cleaning was a separate fee...). 

Comparing the hypothetical care that Veterans would receive under a McCain or an Obama Presidency is a very strange angle to take in light of Veteran's Day.I am pretty sure that almost every single combat arms veteran probably holds a special place in their heart for John McCain that Barack Obama wouldn't even be allowed to visit.

However, the VA thought that I needed one from combat related PTSD and I was able to train one on their dime.
