These bottom of the barrel bottom feeders are a dime a dozen.

What is the best way to throttle the max temperature a tenant is able to heat the apartment on my dime? 

Are they going to start knocking on my door and offering a dime on the dollar in person?

HOWEVER, I soon learned that prospective tenants are a dime a dozen.

if your plan is to get rid of him, tell owner you want unit vacant by closing. this shifts the risk from you onto him, since a holdover tenant has to be evicted and if this tenant refuses to leave the eviction is on current owners dime.

I did it solo and luckily i had a manager that was there for me at the drop of a dime.

But seriously, i would make sure that before spending a dime, that I would really examine WHAT it is that I Need. 

With those type of tenants, and the age of the property...is it going to end up being an ongoing headache that will nickel and dime away the profits?

$$$Refinishing hardwood floors myself, it was a fun experience, but I didn't save a dime. 

My incentive to them was I was a licensed agent had the off market deal and would do both sides of the buying and selling without taking a dime.
