Over the years, rain running off the roof made a trench that held water from both the roof and that slope 7 feet from the house back towards the house.

If you want to see a longer version, here is a Bigger Pockets blog I'm writing about the whole experience.http://www.biggerpockets.com/blogs/3976/blog_posts/27920-rain-rent-and-utilities

Also they check for eviction and money judgements and verify the address the applicant provides.

can of high gloss, black oil paint from Ace Hardware and repainted the iron rains on the front porch (porch plus 2 steps) of my rehab and it looks 100x better.  

Well, It rained so hard today in Houston and i have the 1st complication already.

Then for the whole year I continue to mail these groups rain, sleet or snow.

Because after we had the water turned on it began to rain from the livingroom ceiling.

I didn't feel that I had enough information to determine if something was a good deal or not.Thinking back before I finally pulled the trigger on my first deal ... it started to become 'paralysis by over-analysis' ... at some pt, you have to trust the numbers (i.e. your judgement)!

I don't know if these count as worst real estate deals but here goes- Bought a rental property in 2002, had the tenants stay one night and sue me for 15k they eventually won smalls claims for $3600, hit my credit as a judgement and 2 yrs later they came to my job put a garnishment on my wages.
