There are a lot of tasks that need to be done on a regular basis if you want to find success.So, one of the biggest questions you should ask yourself whether you ready to become a great landlord.

I was driving by what looked like just a regular house- its for sale by the owner sign was in the yard and it said It was zoned commercial.

So it really depends on what kind of people you want to be dealing with regularly. 

I love the ultra thick option, but the regular ones are suitable as well.

Will they still work as well as a stand alone for 10 years if they are NOT hard wired and working off just the battery like just a regular battery-operated detector?

This is a regular purchase off market... first time home buyer for me.

I look at all the new homes each day (as well as 30, 60, 90, 120, 150, 180 day-old active snapshot) and compare them with the average neighborhood rents by bedroom count using about 1600 data points I regularly gather from Rentometer (yes, it is a tedious task!).  

So if your clients are regular buyers, he's probably not your guy.

IN my church we wear a lot of shiny suits and big hats so I *definitely* don't go in that but my hubs wears a regular business suit/sportcoat so that would be fine for him. 

Inspect regularly to protect your investment.
