Electricity, chemicals, scaffolding, spinning blades, etc. 

I am not gonna be as harsh as @Ian Barnes on Baltimore, but buying $7500 houses, god knows where, only calls for trouble.

@Nicole Obregon Yes, someone’s past does Not dectate there future , As a landlord I have given people second and third chances with home rentel and they becomw mIdel rentets , I truly hate to hear about landlords who are so harsh on people who have had prior evictions as if they too have never made an error of judgment or bad luck in there lives some landlords are so judgmental there shoes squick when they walk I am so blessed to be a landlord so I can help people get back on there feet again!!!

Sorry if that came across as harsh..it was commentary in general and not aimed at Thomas specifically.

Right now she's got a problem and as an investor you're probably better at solving problems (harsh truth) so what can you do?

I guess illogic is a harsh word, but I do think there is more of a speculative play involved with betting on appreciation - akin to betting on a hot new tech stock.

Cleaning the air handler coils when dirty, changing filter, using A\C pan tabs, blowing out the drain line with shop vac and using chemicals to deter growth in drain lines all seem to help. 

Oil is used to pave roads, make plastics, produce solvents and other chemicals.

We heard from a garage door contractor he would not put in his garage doors knowing a pool would be in there since the parts get corroded from the moisture and chemicals. 

The tenant wants the guy evicted, she doesn't (shouldn't) have to breathe these chemicals while on the property.
