Get it to fit just right and go on to the next piece......if you screw up, just get another plank and start again....not a big deal.Get a good fit, and then a good bead of silicone between the plank and the tub.....that will need to be re-done every couple of years to insure a water tight sealUnless the tub is sitting on top of the tile, that's basically what the tile guys did and then filled the gaps with grout...same principlePretty easy to do....just tedious.The other option is to use quarter round....but you will still need to spend a lot of time trimming and getting the joints to match right at each angle etc

Whether you're legally liable or not, I think you'd still run the risk of being sued and having to spend money to defend yourself.  

@Scott Robbins I wouldn't spend the time becoming an agent, because you probably don't know where you are going to settle down at this point.

I had to spend a few months fixing up the house before I sold it.

@Stephen Karakitsios welcome and way to be proactive about your first deal.Keep in mind, the idea of an LLC is to protect assets in the case of a lawsuit.

Great way to give back to the community just make sure you protect yourself w good lease and upfront communication (language barriers?)

@Lidia Bowers   Congratulations for thinking on your next step,  I just went to an event about RE syndication on Dallas by The Real Estate Guys, everyone there advanced to jump on 60 + units,   I am selling my SFH portfolio (also a Realtor myself)  spend some time learning about the topic  

Charge 3 to 6 months of rent up front to protect against late payments and cover you in the case you need to evict.

I am in need of some quick advice on the best way to approach this to protect both parties.

I'm one of the most visible people on the site, so many of the messages come from me.The forms you were offered are a package that we have created with the help of state-specific attorneys so that newer landlords who do need them can have a good set of documents rather than the "free" forms available online that do little to nothing to protect their interests.
