"Great stuff on this site, and getting better all the time. A good example is the new reporting service to The Big Three for bad debts. I am a fierce hunter of tenants who steal from me, and this will be one of the best tools in the box. Lots of good friends here and I enjoy the different points of view. I often quote information from posters on the Q & A forum." Brad, MO.
