I also have single family houses that qualify for the exemption.Just be sure you gave your tenants the proper/required notice that you were exempt (which is explained in greater detail in the link I referenced in the prior post).

If the lease stated that the tenant was responsible for lawn care and I noticed that it wasn't being done properly, I would then pay to have it done and bill it back to my tenants by putting a charge on their account.

I wanted to figure out how to properly manage tenants.

-ensure addition met proper set back requirements-pay permits, fines, and park tax.Depending on the culture of the planning department, you may not want to ask a third party what it will take.

& @Mark Sewell - you must use DM properly for it to work, and there are some tricks to optimize. 

Then have the property appraiser update the records to show that it is part of the heated square footage... too many try to use porch areas as bedrooms and get caught later because it is not permitted properly...

The fact they are complaining online might be an indication the property manager dealt with them properly so be sure to ask the manager for their side of the story.7.

I did the exact same thing on my first property and it worked out great, you just have to set things up properly and talk to the bank to see what their criteria is.

Maintenance request, get it in writing and encourage them to provide proper details2.

An added bonus of the nest is that it senses when your AC unit is not working properly or when the filter needs to be changed.
