Beyond that, you can always set a reminder to call the county every year before you renew your permit to see if any laws have changed.

Reminds me if the sickly ignorant woman who went to a place on Las Vegas about two years ago where people pay to shoot different types guns.

I'd still want to use my plumber to avoid the tenant causing damage or not reporting it.If you have a bunch of call lately, perhaps give all of your tenants a quick reminder about what does and doesn't go down the toilet.

I knew this was going to be fun for my rentals.I sent out texts and called all my tenants to remind them that it was important to crank the heat a little higher, and leave hot and cold taps drizzling.Here in New England we have a lot of non-insulated crawl spaces, and that can be a recipe for disaster with extremely cold weather.So I set out for my day, and made some calls.

A friend reminded me, "If it were easy, everyone would be doing it.".

My husband and I are in Denver and have a couple of properties here, but our long-term goal is to relocate to Durango (which we visit at least yearly and reminds us of how Denver used to feel!).

Let me remind you, you guys are not in the power position.

. - could it be that you just need a reminder on what your original goals were? 

We are always reminded not to count on appreciation to cover a poor investment, but if that is working in your favor it's at least something to be thankful for.

Others have regularly been late on payments, have needed reminders of the rules in the lease, and have been asked to leave.
