We have people terminate deals based on septic inspections, and it's a $300 fix meanwhile they're asking for a $25,000 reduction.

Yes, they ran into an issue that completely derailed their original plans; and yes, the property is still listed even after a price reduction.

Lesson # 1 - I probably should not have closed on this property without a better understanding for how much the repairs would cost.Justin from PFR helped me work out a price reduction of $3700 to cover the cost of getting that work re-done, so that we could close on time (December)After closing, I needed to get another inspector in the units for insurance purposes.  

I’ve cherry picked a few individuals as well (MSFT has been a good one, and the Vanguard high yield ETF I mentioned is heavily weighted with MSFT anyway as it is which I like but I still like SPDR better overall so I have SPDR and I’ve supplemented that with adding shares of MSFT to my portfolio for example) but wanted to keep it as simple as possible by pointing the OP towards high yield funds.

Hey, just curious if there's any place in the US that allows a school tax reduction for any particular reason?

It just holds the weight better and has a good look to it.

We are also in a serious drought out here in California, not sure of the regulations where your rental is in SoCal but I know up here in NorCal certain counties are requiring a minimum 20% reduction in water usage or fines could be assessed.

The risk/reward seems highly weighted in favor of keep tenant. 

Worth their weight in gold, they are....For hardware and fixtures, the internet is your friend.

Most housing experts believe that as much as a 20 percent reduction in prices is baked into the marketplace over the next couple of years.
