And then you have students and tenants that run to the four corners of the earth and you get to launch into some exercise in which student/parent(s) you want to hold accountable. 

This is one of my rentals that was recently completed: https://www.apartments.com/718-central-ave-clarksville-tn/e94bk6m/This house was literally falling into the earth when I bought it.

I simply tell them to check out the area and its demographics from 2015 listed on loopnet, Google Earth the neighborhood, and talk to investors that are actually investing in that area that don't want anything from you at all. 

Other days I get out of bed ready to deal with the worst sellers on earth and laugh.  

Experience kicks in, not just technical experience but just from walking this green earth.

I personally don't like bold colors either and lean more toward the earth tone colors.

I have found the opposite to be true in fact every time I’m in Pittsburgh I say “ who on earth would want to live here?”

There's not another country on earth that you can bounce back from that position as quickly as the US free enterprise system.

*smile* EVERY GOVERNMENT on planet Earth gets something from their people to operate.  

What on earth are your rental criteria if a homeowner (co-signer) making $170,000 a year requires a double security deposit???
