I personally HATE this topic as I feel like it is so abused at the sake of truly disabled people needing service animals. 

I can't imagine trying to find random people out there to help you.. not that it can't happen it can.. but I can also see a lot of abuse .. by those that are users that will just use you.

It's old for Texas, the rents are low, which will probably mean more abuse/maintenance.  

@Wayne Brooks  I still had my HML shop going then.. you should have seen those coming in wanting to abuse the poor banks  LOL.... being a private banker I wanted no part of it..

Here's why:Aluminum windows last the longest.Tempered or laminated glass are both stronger than plain annealed glass (laminated is just a tick more energy efficient).MUCH cheaper than good quality custom sized impact windows both in initial cost and replacement cost (I doubt that you will find exact fit factory replacements)Covering them with a permanent, crystal clear, UV filtering shutter will prolong the life of the window, eliminate water leaks and window maintenance.Permanent shutters don't break so there's no replacement cost and offer continuous protection whether you're home or away.Increases home resale valueIf you simply want to flip the place, go to a cheap PVC impact window supplier and get a list of standard sizes and modify your openings to fit.

Well.... once you see the UE rate rise, you can wait until it starts to fall significantly after a prolonged Rise in a Recession and then buy your Investments.There is one caveat here.

They will look good however there is a good chance they will get used and abused regardless of the cost or quality.

And I actually don't feel comfortable abusing the law for free rent from a person in the flesh. 

I have seen swat teams raid neighboring units managed by slum lords who didn't screen tenants, I have dealt with abusive boyfriends putting my tenant in the hospital, broken down cars (which leads to them missing work because they can't afford to fix the car, which then leads to them loosing their job and then getting behind on rent), being threatened with a gun (guy lifted up his shirt showing me the gun in his belt), to countless sob stories. 

It can also lead to abuse by tenants and neglect of properties by landlords, as there's no incentive to improve housing.If anyone doesn't know yet there's a major push for rent controls in cities across California and even at the state level (AB1506 trying to spread it to SFRs and condominiums).
