Congrats on the babies.

I wonder if anyone else does that too?

She can either say yes thank you or “no, lets use it for the downpayment of the next investent property” By that time you are probably raising a baby or doing something exciting with your lives that 99% chance she will say: I forgot abouy the diamond thing.

If we find it is a tenant caused probable, we charge them for the cost of clean out.Depending on the price of the insurance, it may be worth it, but if you only have a few houses, the odds of not having a back up is in your favor.As an investor and future owner of many more properties, you should try your hand at doing it yourself; Rent the machine with the auger and motor on itTurn the water off to the commodeDrain it as best you canRemove the two closet bolts (when replacing, don't tighten too tight or your brake the porcine commode).Remove the wax ring--- messy, stinky -- use cloves - don't get it on your clothingLife the commode from the waste line......guaranteed you'll get water on you (hope it is not yellow)Now feed this heavy cable down the waste line as far as you can go.Push the start button on your machine and watch the cable spin as it seeks the block, oh, be careful because sometimes stuff will fly out and may  smack you in the face.If you are lucky you'll find a baby's toy, a rag or some sort of material that may be unpleasant; bag that ugly stuff for later disposal.Oh, did you buy a wax ring?

@Chris Mason  just not your bag baby !!

And Keep teaching that baby how to be successful.

As far as the lease term, it depends on the landlord, but I've seen month-to-month up to six months (of course, a year would work fine too).

After my baby girl was born a couple of months ago, the desire to spend time focusing on what matters most in life (family, friends, loved ones) increased exponentially. 

Wow, I am impressedStart with reading posts on BP, podcasts,  books on propertyTake baby steps and just soak it up.

I got a property under contract that was HUD and it was a solid deal too.
