She lived there with 3 dogs so there were some great smells from "the dog room"This hose was effectively a 1/2 when I bought it.

That makes for very dark apartments.6) What regulatory bodies have to approve your plans?

My former tenant smoked cigarettes in the unit and the smell was unbearable.

There was a shut off right after the meter....and anyone can shut that, if you think you smell gas, or you want to shut it off when an appliance is being installed it's for that purpose.

All government bodies have their issues but, in this case, Toledo is acting like all landlords are making bank. 

I worked down here for the last year or so, I began to feel that same dark shadow of uncertainty come over me again, but this time it was answered by a Book by Tim Ferriss, the 4-Hour Body...ironically enough I heard about it from a DnD podcast on youtube.

While the IRS will treat them as flow-though and tax the revenue in your hands, the CRA does not recognise this flow-through and treats them as bodies corporate and you will not be eligible for a tax credit for the taxes paid in the U.S.A.If you are planning to do any volume of business in the U.S.A. and wish to have control over when net earnings are repatriated to Canada (if at all), then you will want to have a corporation (C-Corp or LLC that has elected to be taxed as a corporation).Best to consult with a {Canadian} accountant with cross-border business/real estate experience before you get too far down your path.

If you think that people want to do business with some character with a pencil, a pad of paper and a cell phone, I can assure you that people "smell" money (or the lack of it) and listening to a podcast or watching a webinar does not equip you to be a wholesaler, let alone an investor.My vote is to, at minimum, use a quality service like Freedomvoice or similar and work on your written script in advance of recording.

The tenant we plan to use the NTN flat fee collection on was admitting to violating lease terms (smoking and having a cat) which ended up causing damage, smoke and cat smell, burns on the floor where she sat smoking by the scree door, burns on the countertop in the master bath. 

For instance, I painted our new house in order to get rid of the cigarette smoke smell.
