Since i don't know who flipped the switch, i am planning to pass on the cost to them both equally ($180 total)Let me know if anyone has a comment on that, but i do trust my gut when i comes to tenants and their issues, knew this one didn't pass a smell test.Why is there a switch for the boiler in a hallway?

Maybe they've been burned by landlords in the past and are being very careful.You can legally reject them based on personality, facial tattoos, body odor, or other factors, but you better make sure you can prove that it wasn't based on any protected class like race, religion, familial status, etc.

I made adjustments, and it paid off when I found great tenants for the third-floor unit.Improvements Add Up: From installing a shared washer and dryer to renovating my unit’s kitchen, every improvement added value to the property and increased its appeal.Stay Financially Savvy: Refinancing my mortgage and renting out the garage spaces were big wins that helped offset costs and improve cash flow.Expect the Unexpected: Maintenance surprises (like a flooded toilet or diagnosing strange sewer smells) are part of the journey.

Hi all!I am kind of new to real estate investing as I got lucky the first two times but now I am looking to invest quite a bit more money and I am slightly terrified.  I would love to have a support of a group who kno...

But there's no body of case law indicating that to be a concern.
