Substaintial dog damage.

Working with one agent breeds loyalty.  

I must be like a dog chasing his own tail.

For your previous deals did you use a bird dog service or have your own team?

Or I've caught the downstairs tenants with one too many dogs. 

Positive cash flow is still important if you hold, but not as a means to make your profits but rather as an "insurance policy" to let you hold through a downturn if need be and realize those long term rent and price appreciation if they materialize like they historically have in LA.Lastly, if you come across a smokin' deal in the right time frame and a 1031 works out for you, great, but be careful not to let the tax tail wag the investment dog ... if you wouldn't buy the property without the 1031 then do buy it with a 1031.

I went into the backyard which has a privacy fence when I heard a dog barking that I didn't recognize.

So I have a dog in this issue is why I've rattled on.  

Q: As they have a husky dog, which means in the end of the lease there might be (hopefully not of course) some repairs to be done, is there any specific rules with active military regarding security deposits? 

Plus Im trying to bird dog for someone here and I cannot open their site nor will my photos download to my computer in a format that is sendable to anyone.
