New flat-top roof on the whole building and new kitchen and HVAC on the side we are living in.

This question is only focused on the screening process and not all the other requirements that came with the law.  

And all I'm doing is sitting here watching my cell phone screen.

Also have issue where theres some damage to outside...screens torn out, cut a hole in garage to put a wood burning stove(also against lease) SO last week I sent them a notice via usps(not certified, priority with tracking) scheduling inpsection today at 10am(plenty of notice) also sent copy via email yesterday and text yesterday all before 24 hours.

I wouldnt touch an Arlington Condo, as those have been flat for 5+ years.

My best advice is make sure you (or your manager) are screening tenants very carefully on the front end, as they say an ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure.

Should I add a flat amount in the rent, rent might go up a lot and create vacancy or should I split the amount monthly and send It to the tenant, how do I split it between a 3 bedroom apartment and an one bedroom apartment?

Last year, I had to replace most of the roof (flat roof) and the ceiling as water had been trickling in over the last 5 years since it was built. 

I have section 8 properties in SC.You should still be able to screen your tenants and if they don't meet your criteria look for another tenant.

I have 1 rental property and believe I have maxed out the write offs I can take without just flat out making them up.
