The government and most people feel that's not as productive as giving them that 30-day notice.

Poor people have low value (to worthless) things, and things that are not are financed.Written into a lease or not, I still think (Trying) to take something of value from these people will result in a physical fight or a gun being pulled.Texas is a hard to collect state, but turning a smoke stained 11 year old big screen into $100 at the pawn shop hardly seems worth the drama/effort/personal risk.Some people will kill each other over McDonalds Chicken nuggets being out of stock--you never know how people will react to this.

Another benefit to tracking water usage is being alerted to potential leaks or pesky things we all experience such as a continually running toilet.Many landlords attempt to submeter water by installing water meters and having tenants, property managers or themselves physically read the water meters on site.

We can help with the purchase no problem, it's the part after closing: organizing any type of work is difficult, if you are not physically there to meet people, organize stuff and check on progress, let alone coordinate between different traits.
