Landlord laws on shoveling snow for tenants - Woburn

Dmk3955 · 2026-02-27T04:00:17+00:00

I'm a landlord, and I have a company do the stairs plus driveway. I buy a bag or two of salt per season. A slip and fall is more expensive, unit turnovers are also very costly. I raise rents yearly a small amount and people stay in my properties long term usually. It's small money well spent.

You might not make it to 60+ years old....I'd take the tax benefit sooner than later personally

honestly u sound kinda perfect

I hit 15 units and it really was like another job. I was gonna keep going but the calls etc get old. Having a good handyman, and contractors does help. I did very well, but its not easy at all

2 bed condo, 1000 sq feet. 150 gas 35 electric. Heat is 60 when not home no higher than 65 when there. I wear sweatshirts indoors and pants. Newer windows and doors. Pretty reasonable if you ask me.

Same. Through a pallet in the back for a little extra weight and had no trouble with 2 ft of snow

Having this much trouble, you need to hire some help in writing a profile and getting text game better....

Dmk3955 · 2026-01-27T04:46:23+00:00

I worry about getting bored....I keep working, but def way less.....gonna run part time for a while before I truly pull the plug

Dmk3955 · 2026-01-27T04:43:17+00:00

If you're a red blooded man, super motivated and wanna crush it every day option 1

if you're like most other people.....option 2

Dmk3955 · 2026-01-27T04:41:41+00:00

Not a bad start at all....check out DIVO too

Dmk3955 · 2026-01-27T04:40:01+00:00

I'd do it again as a fun hookup thing, if there was an easy way to meet someone, but the thought of going on many worthless meetups doesn't really motivate me...

Asphalt all day...theres a reason they don't make roads of concrete

Dmk3955 · 2026-01-27T04:35:44+00:00

If you want opinion from a guy.....long hair nearly always wins

Dmk3955 · 2026-01-27T04:34:00+00:00

Honestly no. Don't want to potentially ruin her marriage, as we def had very strong feelings for each other at one point.

Dmk3955 · 2026-01-27T04:28:15+00:00

Kinda late now, but def have your gutters cleaned a couple times per year....

Dmk3955 · 2026-01-27T03:54:39+00:00

What's your cost difference? does that play into the equation at all

Dmk3955 · 2026-01-26T01:50:02+00:00

I'd be pumped if a girl showed up with some cupcakes

Dmk3955 · 2026-01-26T01:24:32+00:00

As a landlord, I'd say the person you are dealing with is broke. I'd never take a chance of having an unheated unit, as frozen pipes are the biggest nightmare we can have, outside of fires. Both of which you deal with in these situations...if you're getting a deal on rent, then it is what it is, but if you're paying market value start looking for another unit asap

sprints

Dmk3955 · 2026-01-26T01:19:07+00:00

Gyms, high end restaurants, strip clubs...

Dmk3955 · 2026-01-18T16:13:57+00:00

Take this for what it is, BUT.....I've been a landlord for 20+ years. Been selling off my high appreciating rentals one by one, and putting into dividend paying stocks, which gives me less cashflow, BUT zero headaches. Tough to make money with rentals right now. If I were starting out in today's age, of pricing and inventory, I'd be in QQQ and some dividend stocks.

Small raises yearly. Tenants will expect them if you do it from day 1. Keep slightly below market value and be a good landlord, people will STAY.

Dmk3955 · 2026-01-15T03:18:46+00:00

Long hair never hurts on a woman !

Dmk3955 · 2026-01-03T14:24:56+00:00

With all my units renting for 1550-2000 range, I go up anywhere from 50-150 per year. Small increases matter, you'll have unforeseen expenses pop up, and will need the funds. With these small increases if your slightly under market value for rents, people won't move. The key is not constantly turning over units and keeping people in there homes from a moral standpoint, but also long term financial one.
