They do have a maintenance cost and are sort of a pain in the neck when it comes to loans and such.

LANDLORD is not liable to TENANT, guest, or occupant for personal injury, damage to or loss of personal property (furniture, jewelry, clothing, etc.) from fire, flood, water leaks, rain, hail, smoke, ice, explosions, interruptions of utilities, criminal conduct including theft, burglary, assault, vandalism or other crimes, acts of God, or other causes unless caused by LANDLORD’s negligence.

got it I misunderstood you meant to hire someone cheaper for cleaning gutters,  the guy whom I hired is not a roofing contractor per se he is a renovations contractor who does fixing cracked boot /chimneys thought I could pay him an additional couple of hundred bucks to clean up the gutters as well while he was already there.gotcha. sometimes it's hard to convey and infer intents from a written medium. yeah, in that case, for a couple hundred it's well worth avoiding a broken back/neck.  

The effect on buyer activity (at least in our neck of the woods/waves) has been near instantaneous.

Serious injuries and hospital bills ensue. 

Understand that very few Landlords are ever sued, they are typically sued for security deposit disputes where losses are very small, and even the big slip-and-fall injury suits are typically settled out of court by your insurance company for an amount the insurance policy can cover.

If you've never been to this neck of the woods, you need to come by and drive around.

It sounds like you'd be sticking your neck out pretty far in order to make this work, and I'd hate to see a bump in the road derail the entire thing.

@Tim OlsenThat sounds great I wish you were in my neck of the woods - lol.  

Will there be any problems from a Liability Standpoint if there is an injury in the unit before it is legalized?
