Usually they were being irrational and were just venting, but it becomes exhausting to be on the butt end of such venting time and time again.

When I exhaust my list I either ask someone I trust or I use a service like Home Advisor, but that has mixed results as well.

Hate to brake it to you but two things in life are an absolute certainty: 1) death at some point and 2) paying taxes.You can only defer the payment of taxes (assuming you have exhausted all means of reducing the taxable income/gain as much as legally possible).You say you "have been reading up" on this.

I put a supercharger on it, full exhaust and a few other goodies.  1986 Porsche 928.

It may be worth going back to the drawing table and doing some more 'research' on google but, once you have exhausted you're search it may be wise to listen to what those who have more experience and have been there are trying to tell you... you don't have to follow it... but listening doesn't hurt, best of luck to ya. 

I would always try to exhaust the HELOC route before going the mortgage route.

So far we have not come across any designers who provide an exhaustive end-to-end scope of surface and finish.

That being said I personally would not spend the money until you've exhausted every opportunity outside of paying someone $1000 to teach you things you can learn for free.

If this list is exhaustive of that list then consider yourself lucky and take care of them.

I agree that exhaustive tenant screening is number one.
