@Angel Ortiz Thanks for reaching out to the BP community.If I were to offer any advice it would be that it takes time to turn around a big ship.

thank you for the welcome, and Logan, my interests don't conflict w/ those of Russian ships in Cuba, try to stay a little more focused if you want your opinion taken seriously.As for others in the Detroit/ Las Vegas real estate markets I welcome any questions, thoughts, advice or comments.

why cant someone just ship water to their property and have access to their own water tank?

@Jeremiah Russell it's not a bad plan but you definitely need to make sure that you aren't jumping ship on a good job until you have a solid prospective income to replace it.

. - PR is also a big destination for cruise ship travelers.

If there is a labor strike that slows shipping, or a manufacture supplier has a fire or other matter, they may not be able to supply materials.

I believe they are running a tight ship with good business senses and principles.  

These things all made me nervous, but one quote always reminds me not to let fear drive my decisions: "A ship in harbor is safe - but that's not what ships are built for."

Once everything was ship shape and the unit had been re-rented we would return what was left of the security deposit providing the previous tenant with a detailed accounting (with attached receipts) of all the charges that had been made against their deposit and usually a check for the remainder amount.
