Your inaction does not release them from the obligation to pay for the utilities.

At one point I even got my license just for kicks and hung it "inactive". 

As long as the termites show inactive (which means no tunnels are found) and there are no roof leaks (this is what caused the problem in my house), then you should be fine.

@Dana Adams so I hold my license for Indiana (though it's currently inactive).

Russhell,Great to be in action!

You will have the chance to see things in action and ask questions!

Although I have had my mind on RE for 5-6 years now, it's just no time has ever felt right to just jump right in, and so, I have just been sitting here being inactive and living in a world of what if's and theory, which I am sure many of you can relate.

Burbank Club in Action, Manhattan Beach FIBI, and local organized meetups.

I don't remember the specifics, but I believe the article referenced that in May or June of this year there were 1,800 houses available for sale in the Denver metro area...and there were 22,000 active real estate agents in the same area (and another 20,000 registered inactive). 

I would say that when I initially started as a real estate investor, my fear was simply inaction...not applying the knowledge I've learned from real estate investing and putting that knowledge into action.
