Obviously I can't tell you definitively without seeing it but If there is only water leaking when the tub is running and at no other time you are likely looking at bad putty or rubber on the drain shoe, possibly a leak in the trap or drain, or it could be a bad pipe going to the tub spout or shower riser. 

Hello my husband Rod and I are starting out in the investment game  we are excited to get started and meet many other investors we can work with  we have three young children and are tired of being trapped in the rat race   

Don't fall into the MLS trap.  

My next step would be to get some insect guard around the house.

My question would be, now that you have this understanding, will you do something different to avoid that trap?

I have have folks really struggle with this situation and it does seem as if one is trapped...Have you tried to figure out how to get off this non-ending cycle?

In fact I believe most central banks are trapped at the zero bound and that we're all turning Japanese (Whose 'Lost Decade' is now old enough to be graduating with a master's degree) because low interest rates distort investment and hurt savers who would normally be a big part of the spending in consumer driven economies.

from Alperlaw.comOne practical limitation with the multi-member LLC or partnership charging lien protection is that the debtor’s cash and assets can remain trapped inside the entity as a “patient creditor” holds its charging lien anticipating future distributions.

Robert Allen's "Creating Wealth", Robert Irwin's "Tips and Traps When Negotiating Real Estate",  and "Maverick Real Estate Investing" by Steve Bergsman are among my favorites.

And I've been calmly and politely suggesting a look see at appreciation and rent growth for years but the ungrateful ruffians gotta learn on their own.Don't buy crap, it's a trap!
