Yet, the road to real-estate riches isn’t all about curb appeal and “sold” signs.

Hi Ted,It will take a curb cut, so you might want to find out of that is allowed in that area.You might also want to look for the location of buried utilities and see if that presents a problem.Sometimes they are in the grass median next to the curb, and they may not want you to cross that.Good Luck!

After looking around for a couple of months we found 1967 3br/2ba 1200sqft home with very nice curb appeal in a quiet neighborhood and decided to make an offer.

Hard is, I go through with an eviction, get possession, throw his stuff to the curb and file a court case and get judgement for money owed.

Tell them they are responsible for taking the bins to the curb every week. 

Curb appeal is important with the occupancy and any prospects that need a place to live.Who am I and why you should listen to what I say?   

Also some units have garbage cans next to them, and there is one garbage can next to the curb. 

With new paint, light fixtures, a new sliding glass door and an updated curb appeal, we were able to walk away after selling with a nice check for our next property.

If it is via a hub/gateway connected to the Internet, you can probably find an outfit to read them and bill (since they can be anywhere).If your meters have a remote reading that requires a reader at the curb/outside the building,  you can acquire your own reader and bill yourself ... probably not cost effective for a duplex, unless you plan to sub-meter more buildings.Alternatively, you can manually read them yourself and bill your tenants.

If it's the norm for people to park in the street and there are enough curb to park another 1-2 vehicles that should be no problem.
