A car that looks fresh off the set of Fast & Furious might be fun in CA but wasn't a real wise choice for ME winters.Another favorite are the tenants who refuse to move their vehicles when the plow truck arrives but then call later to complain that their driveway isn't cleared....As @Matthew Paul stated snow is not planned and rarely happens at convenient times.

Today president of HOA calls me and tells me he ruined all freshly put cement, everywhere they see wheelchair marks.

When it comes to the Results and Next steps I recommend writing them down the same day while you still have it fresh in your memory.

Windows need to be functional, allow fresh air, allow egress to name a few.  

While a person 5 to 7 years post discharge will have had suitable time to re-establish good or bad credit practices again where it makes it less risky to simply go with good credit, I don't subscribe to the idea fresh out of BK is bad.

I'd make the fiance apply, double the security deposit, and keep the advertisement fresh in my google drive.

BIG MISTAKE....2 months later they were late and late every month until 7 months later when I had to evict which was the middle of January so by the time I washed all the freshly painted walls and cleaned the once spotless house out and got it rented again I had lost over $3k so I don't think the extra little bit you charge for deposit is worth it.

So you may need a fresh air intake from outside.

Most especially, this holds true in non-spotlighted bureaucracies like the FHA.Mercenarially speaking, a new wave of foreclosures via fresh Fannie and Freddie REO is fodder for profit.

Even after reading all the good books, and participating in these forums, this is a dynamic "game" -- and that's something that keeps this business fresh and exciting.BTW - I'm glad to hear your focus is "buy and hold" as I'm a huge proponent of it as a true wealth builder and I tell that to my investor clients all the time.Again, welcome sir.Continued success!
