I also have a little baby 6' tape measure that I use a lot.

I would not paint cabinets unless you have them done professionally, and unless you are really good with taping and spraying I can't see you respraying an entire kitchen for $800 including doors (unless it's just 4 or 5 total cabinets!). 

no one cares for lease terms, emails, their adress, how many sq ft is the property, is the driveway concrete or asphalt, etc,etc7 steps or less is what it should take. no more, could be less.

I wonder what they'd think of a half-dozen wooden RV's tethered together on a patch of asphalt. 

The other acceptable forms of notice are in person to someone at the property over 18 or taped to the inside of the front door. 

. +1And if you do it in SoCal, tons of red tape around it.

Metal roof vs shingle vs asphalt.

A lot of people involved and lots of red tape...

I made the connections by stripping the wire, wind a bunch of solder around it, wrap it in foil, heat it with MAPP gas, let it cool, remove the foil, and finally wrap it in electrical tape. 

All I have had for 45 years was a 3/4 inch wide tape with a roller ball on the end.
