Imagine someone harassing your girlfriend, damaging your property, using or selling illicit drugs, dog biting you or your other tenants and creating a flea or noise issue, or any number of other potential issues.

Don't use overly rozy projections based on self-management and renting it out forever.2) Higher risk - how do you know which tenant caused the damages or brought in the bed bugs?

Village to Village Network (https://www.vtvnetwork.org/) and Men’s Sheds Association (https://usmenssheds.org/) are successful models of people building community to improve the aging experience.So drawing on Dr Thomas and Nancy’s work and incorporating cohousing and pocket neighborhood elements into my communities, I have chosen to use shipping container homes in areas along the Texas coast where storms frequently cause wind and water damage.

Maybe they are good people and want to pay for the damages and remove the remaining tree?

Plus damages.

The major damage was to 35 computer stations and various other electronic equipment, as well as buildouts, furnishings, etc.

It will be interesting to see how all this plays out during an investigation, but I sure hope that the money can be followed for the investors' sake that were damaged here.I've also been made aware that a company, Tardus Wealth Strategies, who "coaches investors on financial independence in 10 years or less" was heavily promoting the Norada fund to unaccredited investors and was also heavily promoting Ron Fossum. 

And, you need to cure your liability (you cannot use a city easement without obtaining a Grant of Easement from the city - a legal document to be filed with the Clerk of Court).You've done everything you can to mitigate the damage to your home and I applaud you for it.

That's when it hit me.I believe that even though none of the properties these tenants were living in took damage from the storms, they applied for FEMA assistance anyway.

Furnished Finder does make it tricky since you need separate profiles for each room, but platforms like Apartments.com or Airbnb might work better if you're aiming for full-house rentals or structured by-the-room arrangements.If you decide to rent to multiple individuals:Tenant Screening: Screen each tenant thoroughly to ensure they’re reliable and responsible.Clear Communication: Introduce potential tenants to one another Detailed Agreements: Use separate leases for each tenant and specify shared vs. private spaces, utilities, and maintenance responsibilities.House Rules: Create clear, written house rules to prevent misunderstandings.Inventory Tracking: Document everything in the home (furniture, appliances, etc.) to avoid disputes about damage or missing items.Also, market your property with its flexibility in mind—like proximity to hospitals for traveling nurses or universities for graduate students.
