The crap I have to deal with on the SFRs and that Duplex far outstrip any issues I have had with the HOAs (and one I would rate as a huge PITA that has to have a police detail at the annual meeting because the board is hated that much they fear for their safety).However I have this fat check I have to write out every month on them, even on the ones that are "Free and Clear" that DO cut into the cashflow.  

I asked a police officer later what the game was there.

Unless you have something other than a complaining roommate (neighbor, police charge) you are taking one side without investigating.

I love hard wood floors and think carpet is cheap and disgusting (and everyone knows that carpet doesn't hold up over time and so adds to maintenance expenses substantially) so why anyone would object to epoxy or concrete or stone floors on the grounds of them being "cold" is beyond me.what research I've done so far has told me that good quality epoxy floors are durable against impacts and scratches, and "buffing" and polishing the floors for maintenance after so many years seems pretty simple. but I don't have any first hand or second hand experience to offer you, let me know if you try it and like them!

If the police make him leave then they did it not you.

The manager chased the burglar (ya not real smart) for a few blocks and they just happened to run right past a parked police car.

If you ever want to know how to have more power than the police to be able to assert your right to live for free in someone else's house, just watch for a day any of these churlish boil-brained clodpolls, ponces and cockered bum-bailey poofters.

If the neighbor is too loud for a SFH tenant, call the police, don't call me.9. 

We have tried to give the local police a free unit as an extension of the precinct to try to curb the crime problem, but they would not take it.  

4) What have the local police stated about how they'll address a theft issue when it occurs?
