My favorite part so far...for comedic purposes, and please keep in mind this comes with some sarcasm.....I found things like: "The weights of the components are statistically optimized for each metro area in order tobest capture the underlying cyclical movements in the local areaeconomy." translation....

The hotel lobby is furiously pushing forward with this providing a lot of weight behind the banning of STRs.

A portfolio or Hard Money loan could be quicker but weight the pros and cons adequately. 

While a general investor might just tear out the drafty/single-pane windows, a historic buyer is going to be majorly charmed by old windows with rehung weights.

Anyways, the answer to what you "should" do really depends on a lot of circumstances, those with the most weight relating to what you and your wife personally/financially want.

MA and RI (and to some degrees CT) definitely have laws that are more in favor of the tenant (between the process, the length of eviction, the number of regulations that need to be followed, etc.) whereas somewhere like NH tends to be much more weighted towards the landlord. 

That pamphlet that you can get on Lonnie Scruggs.com is worth it's weight -- it's a really nice piece -- well done and valuable for the money they charge for it.

A 3-day notice with an attorney firm letterhead carries a lot more weight than a normal letter.

I might mention that if you have properties and rent to students please remember alot of them (not all) have victorian, ton weight, antique furniture that has been handed down and all try to move each piece with a relative who may or may not be familiar with how to lift much less carry furniture up and down stairs.

As far as taxation goes my credentials hold more weight to the IRS than that of a CPA.
