The government taking a broad brush stroke to interpret vague language the way they want to doesn't cut it.

I have tenants who just moved into my condo and are requesting compensation for: (1) repainting (I had to repaint a wall in a different color than they originally saw when I took down my speakers); (2) loud bathroom fans in each bathroom; (3) Ceiling fans that are outdated but functional; (4) wall wiring so that their t.v. does not reveal the wires; (5) fridge filter which admittedly was old and they noted that my flooring has a soft spot but did not request replacement (yet!).  

Understanding CapEx to its fullest and not brushing it off.

You could add a soft brown as an accent color and the fence would look like it fit right in instead of looking a bit faded.  

  A tenant with a sloppy paint brush can really make a mess and really damage a property.  

I have had to adjust to a few new trends over the last decade and a half - mostly color palate (tans a browns changed to soft greens and blues).

but...I heard from real estate owners that u take it seriously and notify them straight away with a late fee penalty, let them know ur serious coz ur not a bank otherwise u will be last on the list if ur soft and lenient, they will prioritise u down the list during hardship...this is the stance I wud take also when I come to that part...

Not to go too far afield from the original question but this town is different from any other towns with trains because we are  our own little slice or paradise...when you throw your line in the ocean you pull out a plump tasty fish and when you scatter some seeds you grow our own special datil peppers to make a tasty hot datil sauce to brush on your tasty fish...and then throw some oysters and clams on the beach fire grill...we have oceans where you can surf and skim board and Intracoastal where you can Kayak and windsurf  and marshes where you can see pretty pink spoonbills and historic streets and buildings where you can dress like a pirate and drink rum and go argggg....when you can live here NO ONE I repeat NO ONE wants to live by the tracks...so to the original poster I say I would NOT buy anything on the railroad tracks ! 

It would not hurt to brush up on Florida Chapter 83 Landlord-Tenant statutes.

Time to brush up or hire a property manager.
