The finished basement (which included bedrooms their children were occupying) was flooded with 6 inches of water!

It's a single family home and the inspector searched every square inch of the place and found ZERO, let me say again ZERO evidence of bed bugs.

If for example is see stains on the carpet I write "5 one inch red stains two feet in front of the master bath door" rather than "stains on the carpet." 

How do you make the sale of insurance on top of access to the client when 1) they wouldn't even have the flood policy if they could get out of it. 2) they believe they are NEVER going to Flood (even if they live right on the ocean and on a barrier island. 3) they all seem to have a story that the "Big" storm came in and although they saw water close with-in 3-inches from their home but never came in so they must be safe. 

That way, if and when it gets into court, the Judge will see immediately that you are a conscientious landlord and he is just a whining nuisance.I've also hung onto tenants thinking the next one could be far worse, but it usually has ended up with my evicting them; give them an inch and they will try to take 100 miles and we only have so much time and patience.

In indiana it is code to replace all the boards that are 1/4 inch charred.

Snow prediction here is 4-8 more inches of snow tomorrow. 

.- Found Kitchen faucet leaking (looks like it's been leaking for several months; and tenant never informed me) and kitchen was dropping by about inch down from granite and water leaking.

U need a surveyor to prove the height and its nerve wracking when you plans call to build it within a few inchs of the maximum height..

it's an 8 inch pipe!
