Why is it that you can get treatment for a liver, kidneys, heart, lungs, but should that organ called the brain be diseased, it's a figment of someones imagination, an embarassment, and there's no help other than drugging patients up and making it impossible for them to function? 

My work often involves involuntarily confining them and enforcing mandated treatment.

Get to know your properties and get the properties in good repair before you rent them:Make sure the windows are functional, safe, clean, and have window treatments.

OP if you need some of the DR medicine (or the AA medicine, or the cancer treatment, or the cough syrup) is kind of up to you and your personal needs, not up to anyone else.

In a way I later referred to as “child-like,” Jekyll told us that he did not want to reply because he was not our employee, and would not put up with such treatment (to clarify: I did not start by demanding anything.)To make matters worse: I asked Jekyll for his contract with the stager, which Jekyll said that he had and was going to forward to us (he never did, ever, despite our repeat reminders.)

We replaced flooring, window treatments, painted the interior, made major upgrades to the termite infested exterior, and more.

My experience with all of our properties on what tenants will and won't pay for:Will: prime location; maximum square footage possible for the price range; an extra bathroom; good storage; no carpeting; accepting pets; fenced-in yard; central HVAC; main-floor W&D hookups.Won't: fancy appliances; upgraded counters; jacuzzi tubs; fancy outdoor spaces; throw-ins (lawn care, pest control, etc); fancy floors; fancy window treatments; Our tenants have consistently told us that they value the most space per dollar that they can get, in the best location, with basic amenities more than anything else.   

Renters will not pay for: upgraded heating systems, fancy countertops, energy-efficient windows, high end appliances, fancy kitchen cabinets, fancy bathrooms, huge walk-in closets, high-end window treatments, upgraded door knobs, security systems, fine landscaping.I rent generally to "B" tenants in "B" neighborhoods.

Section 1231 basically just refers to whether the asset is eligible for favorable capital gains treatment.

In the past PA has not recognized a non-recognition of gain treatment for 1031 exchanges for deferral of state taxes.
