Bonnie,  it would be a huge help to the community here for you to expound a little on what you thought were red flags.. so others will know what to look for.I saw you guys got some snow last week.. !!!

Snow: Here I go int jumping into the game of Landlord or maybe airbnb owner.

You can compare us to other tax feee states like Texas (even higher property taxes), Florida (insurance and weather), South Dakota (snow?

You may want to hire a landscaper to keep your sidewalks and driveways clear from ice and snow. 

@Pramod MahadevanI'm in Lake Tahoe Nevada and this has become an issue with many larger and smaller condo complexes because of the multiple insurance claims from snow damage last year the insurance companies were dropping policies or charging crazy prices. 

Some kids pee their name in the snow.

And of course some Wisconsin stuff, like snow, ice, leaves and gutters..

. :)  although Snowing today at my house in Portland :)

Do you drive in the snow or do you live in a hot climate.

-snow: it does not actually snow that often in KC.
