Because mom drops by and collects the dirty clothes to wash when the kid is at school or work, dad may drop off a check, or a care package.

When I was growing up, we got peanut butter and cheese from the government, we got clothes from older cousins, and went outside and played instead of belonging a gym. 

so apparently one of my PM tenants lost her job and instead of finding a new one, according to the neighbors. has people knocking on the shared front porch door often for tailoring services and she also sells clothes from her apt and babysits too.the lease doesn't say she cant do business from home nor say she can't put a sign in her window, but what about the quiet enjoyment for other tenants?

If I really don't like someone, there's always a way to make then go elsewhere without denying them housing, this enticing them to reject your offer of housing. charge higher rent ask for a higher deposit make fun of their car or clothes be late for an appointment, continue to offer them appointments at weird times or locations charge for applications and or showings approve their application, but for a different property, not the nice one. charge a move in fee In general, it's okay to charge a higher rent/fees if you think the tenant is high risk.

I dry my clothes in my bathroom by hanging them on the shower rod and I blow a fan on them and turn on a heater in there, and turn on the overhead fan.So, you'll either have maintenance issues from your coin-op washers and dryers, or from tenants sneaking in washers and not catching all the lint and plugging up the drains, or using a bunch of water.Conclusion: Put in washer/dryer hookups. 

If the place is indeed empty (no food, clothing, medications, personal electronics, etc.), and the father himself has turned off the utilities, it's considered abandoned.

It really isn't hard to remove the popcorn, It can be messy, but just put down drop cloths.

They put their smoke-smelly clothes in the laundry room. 

@Daniel LevineI would spend around $15-20K on whatever my wife wanted.... vacation, jewelry, clothing.  

I discovered it when I went over there for routine maintenance, and told them that it was:A) Against their lease to modify the property without my written consent.B) Illegal to put a bedroom in the basement (insufficient methods of egress).C) A bad idea, because the basement gets damp with heavy rains.D) Improperly wired.I read them the part in the lease that they had verbally agreed to and signed, told them not to try that again, and they agreed to undo their electric work and remove the furniture from the basement.
