From research I've seen you cut your potential renter pool in half if you don't allow pets. 

A guy owed me wife some money and they only way he could pay it off was by agreeing to sell his SFR at a cut rate.

I am just trying to cut down on the bure BS that I am sending to the judge on this one. 

PS: Cutting an inch off the bottom of the cabinet is tempting, but not really a viable solution in this case.  

(ie. cut back on % reserved for minor expenses and ZERO for capital expenses, didn't allow enough for vacancies, etc...) 

That cuts down on the amount of "leisure" travelers and "partiers" that have the potential to cause property damage.

The knife cuts both ways. 

Then they got rid of the contractors (they didn't have to pay the unemployment taxes to the state when they got rid of us), and finally, they had to cut into their own muscle when things got really bad.

No sense (in my opinion) arguing over $250 on a six-figure purchase price only to end up with the guy who cuts corners to make up for the lower price.

I'd use an oscillating saw to cut above them to the studs before pulling them.
