Temporarily you can use it to cover the old cedar but screwing it into flaking cedar shakes is not going to last the buggers. five pound bag of cayenne pepper- sprinkle all around the structure (this deterrent is temporary).

REMEMBER, so many pound the drum of how great MFH is BECAUSE of the amplification affect from it being many units in 1, guess what, that sword cut's booth ways!

We all get pounded by salesy pitches so many times a day, I felt like what you threw at me was a little <blech> salesy.

Boy my heart is pounding.

What you need to do is automatically assume that at least 7/8ths of the chest-pounding you hear in these forums is just hot air.

I see posts in the mass media and reality shows with owners pounding their chest about 5-10% cap rates or gross incomes ignorant of $100k downpayments + $100k renovations/furnishings.

As for the amount of rent increases - everyone loves to pound on  the "this isnt a charity"  thing, no, but it is a weighing of options.... 

That's because the caps on annual depreciation and expensing deductions for passenger automobiles don't apply to trucks or vans (and that includes SUVs) that are rated at more than 6,000 pounds gross (loaded) vehicle weight.SUV’s with an UNLOADED gross vehicle weight greater than 6,000 pounds but less than 14,000 pounds are allowed to claim a Section 179 expense of up to $26,200.Trucks with an interior bed-length of six feet or more are NOT subject to this $26,200 limit.Trucks over 6,000 pounds UNLOADED gross vehicle weight with beds shorter than six feet are considered SUVs and subject to the $26,200 limit.Trucks, vans, and SUVs with a LOADED gross vehicle weight of over 6,000 pounds are NOT subject to the Section 280F limits.

There's a fable about a pound and an ounce somewhere in all this.

Matter of fact I think the CA DRE frowns upon that.PS spell check is all wonky right now on BP so excuse my spelling and grammer as I pound this stuff out.. its the thought that counts :)
