On this first property I just did non-toxic paint, called ecos throughout, tried to pick low-voc adhesives etc. refinished existing floors, used some materials that my dad had left over from commercial projects, and went to a place called Community Warehouse downtown, which has a lot of excess building materials that have been donated.

I'm not trying to be disrespectful but I say "GO" with your gut and installed nice kitchen furnishings, (and see what happens), and "IF" your nice kitchen furnishings are destroyed then he/they is/are to be held accountable, (and ask for strong security deposit),I remember when I was hired for JcPenney and it's JcPenney Store Manager walked through lamp section (where I was working and dusting and re-arranging lamps) and said to me that I had belong in "Fine Jewelry" Department and moved me into "Fine Jewelry" Department (where I was required me to hold keys for "Fine Jewelry" Department)...This had lead me to seeing video of how person is "Judge/Misjudge"...In video 2 different men (at separate times) walked into "Fine Jewelry" Department,In 1st video the man was professionally dressed and it's "Fine Jewelry" Department Rep was eager to help him (later she learned he didn't have any money and he walked out) and he didn't say "Thank You",Then....In 2nd video the man was homelessly dressed and it's "Fine Jewelry" Department Rep wasn't eager to help him (later she had learned he was millionaire who did have money, and never approach him (and she lost sale)) and he did say "Thank You"...So moral of this comment is: "Just because property is in bad area doesn't mean tenant/tenants bad person/people..Let your property be different from other properties to give tenant/tenants a chances/chance of "Positive" hope"...Yet at the end of day you R "Final Decision Maker and I will respect your feelings..."

Propane Fuel Tanks- disconnect and store ifleaving for long term storage.J.

This will include driving to the property (30 minutes each way), stopping off at the Home Depot/Lowe's/Favorite Hardware Store to pick up parts, and repair time.

I would let them store their extra belongings in the 2 extra bedrooms in my unit for a low fee (let’s say $50-$100 a month).

According to a study by the Latino Policy & Politics Initiative at UCLA, 40 percent of Black and Latino residents live in neighborhoods with high density, lack of green space, and few grocery stores.
