First I mentioned how it was pretty bad how people are scared of missing one paycheck yet I've seen a lot of these members drive the latest and greatest trucks and sports cars.

I kept telling him the starter is either toast or seized IT'S NOT the board.Finally he confirms it's the starter, doesn't have such a common part in his truck, but can order it.

I think that $ to allow them to hire help to pack up a month earlier than expected would be nice, or offer to pay for a moving truck rental for a few days.

If they still have the trailer frame on them, you might have an easier time finding someone with a big truck willing to do it for a reasonable price.

Follow fire trucks around, offer the freaked-out tenant to board up the house, no need to call your landlord first, and then charge whatever I want.I would never send a thank-you cake to a tenant who didn't call me when the unit was on fire.To each his or her own, but I'm not the roll over and play dead type.

Like larger MF rental developments that require a staff, the Third Gen facilities with 600 to 1000 units typically do require 1 to 2 people to manage, and sell additional products:  insurance, boxes, packing material, truck rental, etc.  

For all you know someone saw it was vacant/empty and broke in, casually hauled the stuff into their truck in broad daylight like they were movers and are currently selling the appliances a county over on Craigslist

Your examples and explanations help a lot to clear up the original question, specifically clothing items.Do you recommend I keep a record, separate from my P&L, of purchases that may be less-than-ordinary, such as a cargo box to carry tools in my truck, or car seat protector covers (to protect my truck seat from getting dirty from tools and other items), etc.?

Can I write off BOTH the moving truck that I will hire AND my entire cross-country road trip (hotels, meals, supplies, etc.) to get my car there?

That seems a bit high, I'd bet you can do it for closer to $40-50K....McCollum Trucking in Monroe NC might make the trip.
