Man, I was about to let a tenant who works as an electrician install some ceiling fans for $100 off rent (vs. approx. $200 to pay a handyman), but he's not hurting for money; I think he was just being helpful.

I think both of you is correct.We have proof that CA price has hit ceiling, but nationwide price like in MN is still going up strong. 

Keep the ceiling fans running in high for a few days, and as that dries it neutralizes the odor!

Experiencing tenant with clutter in lanai stacked floor to ceiling seen from the street.Since I have many tenants, I feel like I should make it a letter that everyone receives and include all current complaints that I have (all were covered in lease - but previous management was lax) plus I want to charge for infractions monthly because all units are severely under-rented:1. clutter seen from street $1502. uninsured, unlicensed vehicles stored on property $1503. pet not on lease $1504. cigarettes on ground within 30 feet of door $1505. not replacing filter $50 (send monthly photos as proof)6. not maintaining property $200Tips for me?

I have fixed everything from clogged toilets to grease splattered all over the wall to a motorcycle being dismantled in the living room and the tenants below complaining of black oil dripping from the ceiling. 

Ceilings, walls, and trim/doors.My real question is do you spray the ceiling first or last?

After recently flooding, tenant called me to let me know that there was wet spots in the ceilings of the house.

We've repaired our second floor wax ring, flange, toilet bowl gasket, ceiling repair after the roofing company patched our leak (which occurred 2 months after it was put on) but refused to show up to repair our interior damage, paint everywhere, and we still need to refinish floors and a whole lot more.As far as beginner territory... well I can't really say it's not since this is my first, but I'd assume as a native and someone that will do the due diligence you understand what it means to be in the city.

I rent a drywall lift because lifting 4 x 12 5/8" rock for ceilings isn't easy. 

All upstairs rooms have low ceilings and my re agent stated they're not considered bedrooms due to non-conforming square footage, low ceilings.Can I list this as a 3 bedroom to section 8?
