Are they sending clean/ respectful vendors to make the repair?

Having good relationships with your tenants is professional - you want them to be responsive when you have landlord - tenant interactions and you want to establish a cooperative and respectful relationship on both sides.

I work with kids that age in my W-2 job and they are surprisingly reasonable when they feel they are being treated with respect.

@Chris Mason, all do respect, but getting a contractor bid isn't the same as what @Pratik P. is talking about.  

., you are exercising independent judgment with respect to the rental and not simply ratifying decisions made by a manager, then, you may deduct up to $25,000 of real estate losses in a given tax year if your modified adjusted gross income (basically your non-real estate related income, with a few tweaks) is less than $100,000.  

I've been reading up on similar cases to our intended application and, indeed, there are some important tests to pass to having the IRS respect the allocation of credits.

Tenant acknowledges that this letter constitutes notice by Landlord to Tenant as required by the Truth-in-Renting Act pursuant to N.J.S.A. 46:8-50.During the term of this Lease, Tenant, at its sole cost and expense, shall obtain and maintain flood insurance with respect to its furniture, fixtures, equipment and other personal property located in the Premises in an amount not less than the maximum insurance coverage available for contents pursuant to the National Flood Insurance Program; it being understood that Landlord shall have no obligation to obtain flood insurance with respect to Tenant’s furniture, fixtures, equipment and other personal property, and Landlord shall have no liability or responsibility with respect thereto.　

You might also gain more respect in the eyes of your assistant if you admit there could be a better way to do it and then ask the assistant for help.

I'm not good at that and respect my weaknesses and focus on my strengths.Best of luck.

I respectfully disagree.
