They are some big boys too you do not want to mess with.One time I was at  parade at Atlanta on the sidewalk. 

Received a letter from the city (Columbus, Ohio) stating a complaint was lodged that the sidewalk in front of my home needs repaired.

For example, the city where I invest might post a warning about the lawn not being cared for, sidewalks not shoveled, trash pick up not handled properly.

Are there people slumming around on sidewalks and porches?

Grading issues, water leaks in the basement, water dams, leaky roof, drafty windows, boilers, furnaces, garages, retaining walls, sidewalks, failing plumbing, unsafe electrical, peeling paint on siding, etc....

They suggested I speak to HOA about putting trash cans near the sidewalk & bike path.

#1)I was at my property yesterday for some maintenance and I noticed the tenant did not clear the sidewalk or steps of ice like the lease says is their responsibility.

The main house foundation is fine but sidewalk around the pool and deck needs some real support.

Then he tells me the flip side , I could have a perfect house pass , within 2 feet of an abandoned house with paint chips falling off on a common sidewalk .
