And take a deposit and pet fee, just in case, in line with what's in your ad.As for the fire pit, I'm envisioning lots of pot and a drumming circle LOL.

Each lazy pot head collecting government rent vouchers is one less competitor and one more customer.Hope this helps and good luck with your real estate ventures!

@William Potting My husband and I are both in the military, although I am on my way out (2 more weeks til I'm a civilian again!).

How about buying a big full plant or tree or three and put them in big pretty pots to put in that space.  

And if they leave belongings, make sure you get them to sign a move out sheet that explicitly states their belongings will be disposed of, so they can't sue you for their invaluable electronics/jewels/pot of gold they left behind and you threw out...

Any kind of flower plantings will have to be pruned, headed, weeded, edged, etc.If it was a small yard, I'd just cover the whole thing with concrete and tell the tenants they can grow plants in pots.

I really need to hear my BPers opinions on this.Thanks, MP I think  you're absolutely right, it is wrong, that is the way the article was written and the misinformation used to stir the political pot for the average Texan.

Slobs had a large pot under the drain catching the water that leaked out, and of course, the pot overflowed quite often.

And I'm old enough to realize that even though I don't have anything very fancy, when you look at replacing your furniture and clothing and pots and pans and bedding, let alone your electronics, it sure adds up in a hurry.I have never needed my homeowners or renter's insurance policies, but I would never be without them.  

The depreciation expense on the equipment sweetens the pot even more.
