We have experienced this over and over where the owners are spending money on deductibles and then we have to send out our maintenance people to fix the problem.Our next problem came in the form of a malfunctioning air conditioner.

If it were me, and I use to live in Florida, a lot of  house are built on slabs, and I know what it would take to remove and reinstall a new air conditioner. 

and Air conditioners? 

Hello biggerpockets...the lease on the my condo is coming to an end on July 31, 2018..i was just recently at the condo with my real estate agent and photographer (to get it ready to list) and notice this black soot throughout the condo (on the walls, ceiling, kitchen cabinets, trim, windows, etc). i asked my tenant about this and he said it was caused by the air conditioner (central air) in december...he said they were doing work on the roof and something they did up there caused this black soot to spread throughout the condo...the condo needs to be completely repainted...i was just at the condo today and tried to clean some of it up but its not coming off...i do not believe my tenant for the following reasons:1. why would they wait 6 months to tell me 2. why is the soot randomly throughout the rooms and not concentrated by the vents3.

For example, if lightening strikes and the air conditioner gets destroyed as well as the tenant's flat screen TV, my insurance company will replace the AC less the deductible but not their TV, and I'm not responsible in my area for the TV. 

In my condo, it was turnkey except for the air conditioner and I was responsible for everything studs-in. 

Looking for advice on leave-in conditioner and leveling up my eyebrow shaping.

But if you don't contract out your maintenance, you will have to learn that stuff - like how to fix or replace an air conditioner, ceiling fan, etc.  

I see there is a centralized air conditioner system over the false roof, is it?

Window unit air conditioners draw an extraordinary amount of electricity in these old buildings with no insulation.I know Ghent is great, but you may have better luck holding out for something in Ocean View that's not in a flood zone - they do exist.
