Looks like you guys have a lot of port silt loam, which is NOT a very expansive soil.

I am looking to invest in some properties in DFW but did not realize how many houses had foundations issues here due to the clay soils. 

When I inquired about it, plumber said lining, it is usually not prefect since this is PVC breakage not just pipe cracks and the cost saving is not significant enough and maybe headache down the road.I will try to get more quotes and maybe a company that specializes in pipe lining options.I was told foundation work / under slab pipe repair is common in the Dallas TX area due to soil type.

Case and point--a bear kept getting into our dumpster. 

Some questions I would want to answer: Has anything changed in the surrounding soil recently? 

Minimal changes to effect common entrances, no major shifts in load bearing, easy plumbing changes for wherever the new kitchen would be... it's a lot of boxes to check. 

Offer a great first-stay experience with thoughtful touches like welcome gifts and clear communication to earn those initial positive reviews.For Big Bear’s rules, stay on top of local ordinances—maybe even connect with other hosts for advice.

Additionally, interest-bearing accounts may be mandated in certain jurisdictions, so it's important to check local regulations to ensure you're handling deposits correctly.

@Scott F. the name of the policy has no bearing on if it's the right policy or not.  

Some require that you inform tenants if you have an interest bearing account and pass the interest along.
