It didn't help that the renos overlapped with Christmas and that we ended up having to gut the bathroom as there was extensive water damage from a leaking hot water tank (it was damage from before I bought it). 

The next meetup is next Wednesday:  https://www.biggerpockets.com/forums/521/topics/39...We had a good turnout in December, despite it being cold and it being before Christmas.

"Can I put Christmas lights on the roof" "No our policy is tenants can not climb onto the roof"         -because of that one dude who fell off the roof that one timeBecause we self manage, our company consistently out performs the big PM companies when it comes to rent rates, vacancies, retention and turn time.

There's another recent thread about Christmas gifts, general concensus is don't do it, for various reasons.I can support either side, but I think that just showing human compassion with words can go a long way and the gift part probably isn't necessary.I think it's sad that gestures of good faith can be misinterpreted, but that is the age we live in, so better to be safe and blameless rather than giving and vulnerable.

Merry Christmas!
