This afternoon while cooking out back, Mexican neighbor agreed to help out with the house painting and other yard projects - for virtually free on weekends starting tomorrow - in exchange for a few beers and my awesome lunch/dinners off the grilly! 

It's akin to making a booking at a restaurant and writing a positive review before you even get to the restaurant, experience the ambience or taste the food.

Much of their food would spoil and they'd be hungry, and most people don't have a proper stock of food and what do you think people will do when they're really, really hungry?

(Food for thought)10% for Cap Ex & 5% for maintenance sounds fair and consistent with many BP suggestions.If it is value add and you do renovations, then hopefully your place will be "like new" and won't have many of those repairs/maintenance/cap ex issues early on. 

Love living here as well, big city but has a lot of small town touches, Theme Parkes, historic attractions, military bases, great food, and friendly residents.

Get rid of them ASAP.I'd talk to the city and ask them politely how you are to get rid of the smell from the fridge when it is filled with the tenant's food which is causing the smell. 

All you need to know is where motivated sellers will be WHEN they become motivated.Where would you go to get food if you were a hungry lion in the savannas of Africa?

Providing all the necessities for cooking and cleaning up.  

Whether you are starting an online service or buy a food truck, endless possibilities..

The tenant wants over 13K to cover stay at a hotel (that only has a small fridge), food for the family, moving costs and storage costs which is about 2x the amount the city expects.
