So basically everything else is on the tenant.Are you asking to specify that the tenant must hire pest control on their dime on a routine schedule?

If you roll it into the overall rent, they won't know the difference and they'll feel grateful to live in a place where the landlord isn't apparently nickel and diming them to death.  

For one thing they will have a hard time paying you if they get arrested and for another thing the cops very well might tear you house completely apart and if they do they will not pay you a dime for the damage.

I think books like this will be the new darling of the liberal professors ( taking the place of books like Nickled & Dimed)  as our society is being told that no matter how many bad decisions you make including but not limited to failure to get the right education or job skills...having kids before you can afford them etc...housing is a RIGHT and an entitlement and at a price they think they should pay...it can't hurt to read a book like this to understand the changes that may be coming...might make an investor want to consider other options than buy and hold...forewarned is forearmed

It's your investment and curb appeal - - don't nickel and & dime this decision!

I had great renters and became friends with most of them, I didn’t try to nickel and dime them and shared my internet.

I personally don't think it worth and you may not get a dime.

Right now they are trying to create a third option of taking advantage of you and maybe even getting paid to live there for free if you give them a dime BEFORE they move out, and you are falling for it.  

Our government is out of control and grasping for every dime to keep themselves in cushy jobs with retirements paid for by taxpayers.

You probably won't see a dime in the near future.
