(The stuff of the young).Still love the out doors; hiking fishing, hunting, camping, or just drives through this gorgeous country.

I love the outdoors and though I love what I do for a living, I'm ready to move on to this new adventure as I approach my mid 40's!

Our rent will be the same but her house has an awesome outdoor kitchen, stainless steal appliances, granite countertop and other "bonuses" none of which will get her more rent.

I currently work full-time in the finance department at a local university and enjoy spending time with my family and being active and outdoors (running, snowboarding, hiking). 

Husband was in the Outdoor Business for 30 years and had his stomach full and I lost my job nearly 2 years ago due to close of the company.

We get 100 new people coming into out doors every month...  

You are taking more than a couple of risks here. ..tbe biggest is not being able to refinance this outdoor took the balloon coming due.  

Basically, they had to correct the violation (stop smoking indoors) and if it happened again I could evict without notice.We do not allow smoking indoors, by the tenants or any of their guests, outdoors only and must use proper disposal containers. 

Question for the BP community, I just closed on myfirst 3 family househack a few days ago, and changed the outdoor locks to the unit I will be occupying with a standard keyed entry lock at least for now.
