Maint would depend on age.

And if any state adds a class to it's particular law, it doesn't automatically bleed over to all states.Some number of years ago, the feds were reading real estate advertisements and taking action when the ads suggested preference for various things, like "great for the young family just starting out" was deemed to discriminate against age.

I live in So Cal, I'm ambitious, I want to buy as many units with as little $ down as possible, I know of and greatly respect the 2% rule, I'm still alive; age 25, I'd like to buy and hold individual units as a landlord, I like the idea of my own LLC, I'm married with a daughter, just got a CA Real Estate Sales License, just signed with a broker who does real estate and loans, I love quality time with my family, just got out of the Navy, and I'm ready to consider all advice!

I taught survival to high school age guys at my church for a while (and taught them how to make weapons - don't tell their parents).

Houses age also, just not as fast as MHs.

I retire at age 34, debt free, cash flow coming in and only 3 years after my investing restart/rebuild.

Not technically a real estate company, however, due to their large amount of RE holdings/assets, this is the place for this thread.As many of you know, there is a BP thread about the terrible business practices of BofA (Bank of America) named "the official BofA Sucks Thread"This thread is not to talk about those instances, but to inform all and hopefully for us ALL to come together and fight this crooked corporation who is "Too big to fail"It seems we are all in the "entitlement age" where most Americans stick their heads in the sand and continue with their entitled behaviors.

This may change as I age but right now business is what I want to do.Weight your options, try to make her understand, or compromise your future business.Good luck!

Thanks everyone.On the pet deposit these buildings are older from the 80's and the tenants have been there awhile and the carpets have reached the end point.So I would rather have the upfront pet fee than a deposit.When these tenants move out the carpet will be replaced because of age anyways.If it was brand new carpet just put in I might feel different.Thanks for the other ideas with the car.Since I took this over some tenants are saying they don't have the money etc.
