Tenants like to hang christmas lights with 16d nails for some reasonj. yard and shrubs to be kept trim, neat etc. on the second warning letter from the HOA, I'll take over yard maintenance and that amount will be added to the lease.You get the idea.all cash

It is up to you to do any repairs and either sell the property, live in it, or rent it out.As for the condition of the properties I like to tell people that it's just like christmas.

Atlanta REIA Christmas party is this Monday.

Think of April as Christmas.

I give a gift card at Christmas time of 5 dollars everytime the rent is paid on time. 30 dollars =6 months on time.

Expenses haven't been a major concern with this one, but I finally had to tell her Merry Christmas, last October. 

Christmas is scary.

You also will not have any way to know if this person just takes their Christmas bonus, sets it aside, and pays taxes with it.Basically, looking at net and worrying about CPA stuff is waaaaaaaay too in the weeds and micro-managerial of their lives. 

This past winter I signed leases on Thanksgiving weekend, Christmas Eve, and the first week in January.

Windows units are about as efficient as any other air conditioner as long as they are sized correctly.Personally, I'd buy a few window units and say "Merry Christmas".
