The more people who open it and stand in front of it for air conditioning or thinking about giving the dog a piece of chicken the harder it runs, the shorter it's life.Your picky tenant will never be happy.

Had 1 very bad tenant (5 dead chickens in living room).

Hi Joey,You could staple chicken wire over the broken fence part until you decide to replace the rotten wood.Chicken wire is cheap and a good barrier to dogs--in addition to the shock collar.It's also quick and easy.If a dog is breaking the fence--it might mean it's time to replace it, and possibly the uprights.You can have metal chain link fence posts installed for wooden fences if you want, if you can find workers in your area that know how to do it.Then the posts will no longer rot.Good Luck!

Hi Drew,I looked at Kearney, and it looks like a nice small town, a long way away from the bigger cities.[1] Now you say you want to "Connect" and "Network" -- and ask what can do to provide value to others.Way too wide of mesh in your net...tighten it up--what do you want to get from others--focus on that vs what can you give to them.You cannot find a needle in a haystack unless you FOCUS on finding it.Don't worry about what you can give to others--it's probably nothing they really want or need.[2] Focus on making Business Friends...get invited over to Don and Betty Drapers house for a BBQ, or Christmas Caroling.Not friends like in High School, but Business Friends...You might be the youngest person there.Pull out our wallet and invite 20 people (you have know for at least 6 mos) to a chicken and corn BBQ at your place, if only 1 shows up--that's better than zero.

But the chickens do come home to roost, so it's better to steer clear of conduct like that. 

Chicken and egg - They don't think they can find a replacement they like.

Soil is in restricted soil area (perc test will be available in Feb in our area).Keeping in mind this is a 1/2 acre plot with 1/4 acre plot across the street, 5-6 outbuildings (chicken coop, outhouse, garage, ~100 sq ft shed w/ electric, cinderblock smokehouse, fire pit, and other shed).

But also post your question in the Memphis forum and that might reach more peopleI have not done turnkey in Memphis but have owned several rentals; it is a good market.Reach out to me when you come visit and we can grab some famous Gus's fried chicken!
