Seeing how the yards of rentals are routinely destroyed makes me lean towards a condo set up, but I guess that comes back to your point about tenant quality.I am completely with you on finding a “respectable” place, I think that’s part of my issue.

Sometimes, properties are completely impractical for someone with a physical disability.

She just wants it safer7) Both tenants are are social security disability for at least since they moved in 18 months ago...both have had some hospital admission or emergency room visit in past 3 months.8) The property manager sent me an email May 2 to terminate the management agreement.Where do I start to attack the problem??

The law make it unlawful to discriminate on the bases of race, color, religion, sex, and national origin, disability, and familial status."

Mr Attorney, it would seem odd that someone on SS disability had clearance from SS to work in a hazardous job like roofing while collecting disability.

I included in my contract that tenants must be responsible for routine yard work and say how this falls under that category. 

Just today I was listening to a radio show on NPR about people from CA moving to TX and there was a story about a family who had a son with developmentally disabled issues. 

Unless, you have that built in overall in the analysis.Personally, I would not consider switching to city sewer unless the entire septic system needs to be replaced and sewer is close.Septic is fine when system is designed correctly and routine maintenance is conducted.Hope that helps.

(I have had tenants turn the AC off when they move out or the heat in winter)- We require they have someone check on the property if they leave it for more than 5 days (This is to make sure there are no water leaks or HVAC issues that lead to problems while they are gone)- No businesses can be run from the property (to prevent day care, laundry services, gambling, drugs or who knows what)- We specify yard care includes week spraying and cleaning up sticks less than 1" in diameter (otherwise tenants think yard care is mowing only)- We state that tenants utilities can be used for routine maintenance or repairs (I once had a tenant complain the roofers were using his power for their compressors)- We have a whole section on mold stating that mold is naturally occurring and results from excess moisture.

Upstairs - so they don't have to hear anyone above them (really important to a lot of tenants), first floor unit (older tenants, especially, love them, also better for disabled) has hardwood floors (tenants love them), is a corner unit (so fewer neighbors, more windows), closer to the parking lot (important to tenants) - market it with anything that's unique or better about your unit.
