There are tons of cabinets places around me, and the prices are better than the big box stores (we do not have Ikea).  

For a customer facing business like food, convenience stores, salon etc it's ABSOLUTELY a must.

At the same time (if you did find evidence of a dog), asks about and tell them that the fleas could of came from the dog and the dog needs to be removed as it was not approved.At the big box stores they sell flea bombs that you can set off yourself, but need the place vacant for 8plus hours.

They will lend to LLCs, even though you may need to personally guarantee the loan.They may still require property seasoning and a larger down payment.You can open small limit business credit cards or store cards like Home Depot to help build the LLC's credit.

Can you please make a recommendation for carpet installers in the Austin area or should I just go with the big chain stores?

Habitat for Humanity Re-Store ... it is hit and miss, but if you can find something that suits your needs there, you will not beat the price.

Today... a tenant comes walking in with a freezer full of food and wanted to store it in our freezer, saying the leasing agent told her she could. 

This helps ensure the security of the applicant’s private information and relieves the landlord of the responsibility of storing this sensitive information.
