This Christmas story gives
a biblical account of the
events surrounding the
birth of Jesus Christ. The
Christmas story is paraphrased
from the New Testament books ofMatthew and Luke in the Bible.
Mary, a virgin, was living in
Galilee of Nazareth and was
engaged to be married to Joseph,
a Jewish carpenter. An angel vis-
ited her and explained to her that
she would conceive a son by the
power of the Holy Spirit. She
would carry and give birth to this
child and she would name him
Jesus.
At first Mary was afraid andtroubled by the angels words.
Being a virgin, Mary questioned
the angel, How will this be?
The angel explained that the
child would be Gods own son
and Nothing is impossible with
God. Humbled and in awe, Mary
believed the angel of the Lord
and rejoiced in God, her Savior.
Surely Mary reflected with
wonder on the words found in
Isaiah 7:14 foretelling this event,
Therefore the Lord himself will
give you a sign: The virgin will be
with child and will give birth to a
son, and will call him Immanuel.
While Mary was still engaged to
Joseph, she miraculously became
pregnant through the Holy Spirit,
as foretold to her by the angel.
When Mary told Joseph she was
pregnant, he had every right to
feel disgraced. He knew the child
was not his own, and Marys
apparent unfaithfulness carried a
grave social stigma. Joseph not
only had the right to divorce
Mary, under Jewish law she could
be put to death by stoning.
Although Josephs initial
reaction was to break the engage-
ment, the appropriate thing for a
righteous man to do, he treated
Mary with extreme kindness. Hedid not want to cause her further
shame, so he decided to act quiet-
ly. But God sent an angel to
Joseph in a dream to verify Marys
story and reassure him that his
marriage to her was Gods will.
The angel explained that the
child within Mary was conceived
by the Holy Spirit, that his name
would be Jesus and that he was
the Messiah, God with us.
When Joseph woke from hisdream, he willingly obeyed God
and took Mary home to be his
wife, in spite of the public humil-
iation he would face. Perhaps this
noble quality is one of the reasons
God chose him to be the
Messiahs earthly father.

CHANUKAH - For the Jews, it is preparation for the festival of rededi-
cation, also known as the festival of lights. The Maccabees successfully re-belled against Antiochus IV Epiphanies. The Temple was purified and thewicks of the menorah burned for eight days, even though there was onlyenough sacred oil for one day of lighting.
ADVENT - The season before Christmas, Christians around the world
are preparing to commemorate the birth of Jesus Christ, the only be-gotten Son of God. He is the image of the invisible God. That is Christis God in the flesh.
Friend,God and the Lord Jesus supernaturally talk to me via the Bible, dreams, visions, and out-of-body
experiences. I was born in a small town in Italy, and came to America with my family in 1954. In 1987I was going through some personal issues coupled with left over emotions (baggage), that were trulyweighing me down. One night after I put my three young daughters to bed, I went to my room, closed
the door and prayed a simple prayer, God help me.

Everyone has heard about
it! The media had a field
day reporting about it!
Congressional leadership is
paralyzed into inaction by par-
tisan politics in time to pre-
vent or solve the mess that
they themselves created,
before we all go over the edge!
I felt it necessary to spell out
briefly what this sensation is all
about.
Origin of the Fiscal Cliff
Last year, Congress tried
to lower the federal deficit by
$2.1 trillion. A super-commit-
tee of Republicans and
Democrats created the Budget
Control Act of 2011, a penalty
for failure thought so egregious,
it would never be triggered.
The penalty created includes a
$1.2 trillion cut in spending,
scheduled to go into effect on
January 1, 2013.
What is the Fiscal Cliff?
The Fiscal Cliff is the
common name used to
describe the culmination of
$500 billion in defense cuts,
called sequestration, and vari-
ous tax increases, which
include:
Expiration of the two percent
payroll tax-cut on December
31, 2012
A 3.8 percent surcharge on
investment income to fund
Obamacare
Capital gains top tax rate will
increase from 15 to 20 percentDividend income top tax rate
will jump from 15 to 43.4 per-
cent (including the surcharge
of Obamacare)
The Alternative Minimum
Tax threshold will decrease
from $74,450 to $45,000 for
joint filers and $33,750 for sin-
gle filers
The exemption amount for
Estate and Gift Tax will
decrease from $5 million to $1million, and the tax rate will
rise from 35 to 55 percent
Options for Dealing with the
Fiscal Cliff
Congress has its choice of
limited, equally unattractive
options when dealing with the
Fiscal Cliff:
They can do nothing and let
the Budget Control Act of
2011 go into effect. This would
result in a number of tax
increases and spending cuts, as
previously discussed, which
could possibly drive the econo-
my back into a recession. The
positive to this option is thedeficit, as a percentage of GDP,
will be cut in half.
They can cancel some, or all,
of the scheduled tax increases
and spending cuts, which
would add to the deficit and
increase the chances of the
U.S. facing a debt crisis similar
to the ones currently being
faced by European nations.
They could take a middle-of-
the-road course of action, opt-ing for an approach that would
address the budget issues to a
limited extent, but that would
have a modest impact on
growth.
What options do citizens
have to deal with the antici-
pated Congressional failure of
either a total or partial solution
to the massive taxation the

Joseph too, must have
wondered in awe as he
remembered the words found
in Isaiah 7:14, Therefore the
Lord himself will give you asign: The virgin will be with
child and will give birth to a
son, and will call him
Immanuel.
At that time, Caesar
Augustus decreed that a cen-
sus be taken, and every person
in the entire Roman world
had to go to his own town to
register. Joseph, being of the
line of David, was required to
go to Bethlehem to registerwith Mary. While in
Bethlehem, Mary gave birth
to Jesus. Probably due to the
census, the inn was too crowd-
ed, and Mary gave birth in a
crude stable. She wrapped the
baby in cloths and placed him
in a manger.
Out in the fields, an
angel of the Lord appeared to
the shepherds who were tend-
ing their flocks of sheep bynight. The angel announced
that the Savior had been born
in the town of David.
Suddenly a great host of heav-
enly beings appeared with the
angels and began singing
praises to God. As the angelicbeings departed, the shep-
herds decided to travel to
Bethlehem and see the Christ
child.
There they found Mary,
Joseph and the baby in the
stable. After their visit, they
began to spread the word
about this amazing child and
everything the angel had said
about him. They went on
their way still praising andglorifying God. But Mary kept
quiet, treasuring their words
and pondering them in her
heart. It must have been
beyond her ability to grasp
that sleeping in her arms
the tender child she had just
borne was the Savior of the
world.
After Jesus birth, Herod
was king of Judea. At this time
wise men (magi) from the eastsaw a star. They came in
search, knowing the star signi-
fied the birth of the king of
the Jews. The wise men came
to the Jewish rulers in
Jerusalem and asked where
the Christ was to be born.The rulers explained, In
Bethlehem in Judea, referring
to Micah 5:2. Herod secretly
met with the Magi and asked
them to report back after they
had found the child. Herod
told the Magi that he too
wanted to go and worship the
babe. But secretly Herod was
plotting to kill the child.
So the wise men contin-
ued to follow the star in search
of the newborn king and
found Jesus with his mother in
Bethlehem. Most likely Jesuswas already two years of age by
this time. They bowed and
worshipped him, offering
treasures of gold, incense and
myrrh. When they left, they
did not return to Herod. They
had been warned in a dream of
his plot to destroy the child.

Plenty of people prefer to
take advantage of hard-
earned vacation time by
escaping to somewhere warm
when the weather at home
gets cold. Buying new items for
a wardrobe is customary before
a trip, and for those who will
be spending time swimming
and snorkeling, a new swim-
suit is often a necessity.
As anyone who has had
to shop for warm-weather
clothing and accessories dur-
ing the winter in a cold cli-
mate can attest, finding the
right swimsuit can be chal-
lenging. However, it is not
impossible, especially when
the Web makes shopping for
specialty items relatively easy.
In addition to the Internet,
there are other retailers who
may keep swimsuits in stock
during the offseason.
Lingerie stores: Shops
that stock intimate apparel
often have a section devoted
to swimsuits as well. Retailerslike Victorias Secret generally
carry swimsuits year-round,
though your options may be
limited.
Department stores: Some
department stores understand
that winter escapes are popu-
lar and will begin stocking
bathing suits and other sea-
sonal merchandise in limited
amounts come January.
Specialty swim shops:Centers that offer swimming
and SCUBA lessons may sell
swimsuits and supplies, like
goggles and bathing caps,
throughout the year. A spe-
cialty store may be a good
place to start if there is one in
your area.
Finding a swimsuit for a
winter getaway can be chal-
lenging. But there are some
options available both on-line and in brick-and-mortar
stores.

Santas workshop likely
devotes an entire floor
to gift wrap, ribbon,
bows and bags. Intricately
wrapped presents sustain the
suspense of the treasure
beneath the paper. In addi-
tion, theres something spe-
cial for recipients when a gift
is adorned in ribbon and
bows. However, the average
gift-giver cannot recreate
Santas wrapping room when
the time comes to wrap gifts.
But a person may be able to
fashion a compact wrapping
station in a seldom-used cor-
ner.
Many people long to
have an area where they can
create wrapping magic for
holiday gifts, birthday pres-
ents and other tokens of
appreciation throughout the
year. However, with limited
space, tall rolls of gift paper
may have been stashed in the
back of a closet or tucked
under a bed, making them
inconvenient to use once it is
time to wrap gifts. With just a
few feet of space, anyone cancreate a compact gift wrap-
ping station that, while free of
fancy bells and whistles, has
all thats needed to get the job
done.
The first step in creating
your wrapping station is to
find a spot that is out of the
way but enables you to easily
keep inventory of paper and
ribbons. The back of a door or
behind the door often pro-vides adequate space to store
supplies, and the width of a
door might be the right size
for the average roll of wrap-
ping paper. If the door is too
narrow, the rolls can be hung
vertically instead of horizon-
tally. Fortunately, gift wrap is
narrow and doesnt take up
much space on its own.
Therefore, it usually can be
tucked into a corner. Also,
you just may have enough
scrap materials around the
house to use to build your
wrapping station. If not, a trip
to the hardware store or home
improvement center can gen-
erally yield what you need.
Wooden dowels are an
inexpensive yet valuable sup-
ply. Rolls of wrapping paper
can be slid on the dowels and
hung horizontally on hooks
protruding from a door or
wall. For a vertical installa-
tion, make a wooden frame
the width and length that will
be needed. Drill holes in the
frame on the top and bottom
through which the dowels can
be fed. Then drill small holes
on the ends of the dowels. Use
cabinet door handles or draw-
er pulls on the end that are
wider than the holes made in
the wooden frame. This way
the drawer pulls can be
unscrewed at the top to
remove the dowels and refill
with a fresh roll of paper.
Then the knobs can be
screwed back on to prevent
the dowels from falling
through the wooden frame.Those who are a bit more
handy may want to paint and
attach a piece of plywood to
the door on hinges that can be
folded up and locked into
place with a hook when not
needed, but then put down to
serve as a shelf on which the
wrapping can be done. Be sure
to have a shallow ledge that
protrudes somewhat under the
shelf to offer support when the
shelf is in the open position.
A separate dowel can
be used to keep rolls of rib-
bon neat and within reach.
Scissors hung on a hook or
attached to a string will
ensure that youre never hunt-
ing for scissors under rolls of
wrapping paper. It also keeps
the scissors safely out of reach
of young children.
If desired, a tape dis-
penser can be mounted on the
wall or door as well, enabling
one-handed measuring and
cutting of the tape.

Winter is here! The
cold weather
either means
weekends filled with sledding,
ice skating and skiing, or try-
ing to hibernate until the
spring. Either way, this time of
year can be particularly hard
on our furry companions.
There are many cold-weather
related hazards for our pets,
ranging from antifreeze con-
sumption to hypothermia. As
their caregivers, we need to
take some extra precautions to
ensure the safety and well-
being of our pets.
Keep your pet warm. Do
not leave them outside for
extended periods in the cold
weather, as hypothermia is a
real hazard for pets. Be careful
when exercising your pet out-
doors, especially if they are
young, old or sick, since these
animals may have a more dif-
ficult time maintaining their
body heat. Watch carefully for
any signs that your pet is too
cold when outdoors, which
can include lethargy, refusing
to walk and shivering. Some
pets may require a sweater or
jacket to help keep them
warm when walking in the
cold. Never shave your dog
down to the skin in winter, as
a longer coat will provide
more warmth. With cats its
easiest to just keep them
indoors. In older dogs, the
cold can also increase the
discomfort of arthritis.
Therefore, keep them warm
and mainly indoors with short
periods of outdoor exercise.
Keep your pet away from
antifreeze. Antifreeze con-
tains ethylene glycol, which is
extremely poisonous. It has a
sweet taste and bright color,
which attracts pets. Ingestion
of even tiny amounts can be
lethal, usually from kidney
failure. Make sure your pet
and outdoor animals do not
have access to antifreeze con-
tainers. Clean up any spills
immediately. If you suspect
your pet has ingested
antifreeze, contact your vet-
erinarian immediately.
Watch out for ice. Senior
pets or pets with mobility
problems may find it hard to
navigate safely on slippery sur-
faces. Take a different path, or
assist them if needed. Also try
to keep your pets paws free of
snow, ice melt and winter
chemicals. Snow packed
between your pets pads can be
painful. Chemicals in the
road, or sidewalk salt to melt
ice, can irritate their paws and
cause upset stomachs if ingest-
ed. High concentrations of
salt and other chemicals in
these products can cause any-
thing from mild irritation to
chemical burns on your pets
paws. Be sure to wipe their
paws with a moist cloth when
returning indoors. To prevent
any issues, use dog
booties as protection
and a non-toxic ice
melter like Safe Paws
for your own side-
walk. Another ice
hazard is thin ice on
lakes and ponds.
Keep your pet away
from lakes or other
bodies of water that may have
thin ice.
Adjust food intake to suit
your pets winter activity
level. Pets that are outside or
do a large amount of activities
in the cold weather will need
extra calories to keep warm.
But most pets dont get as
much exercise in the cold
winter months; therefore, be
sure to feed them a little less
to prevent them from putting
on extra weight.
Put away your human
medications. One hazard that
is often overlooked by owners
is the danger that accidental
medication consumption pose
to our pets. With the winter
months comes cold and flu
season for humans, which
generally means houses
stocked with over-the-counter
and prescription remedies. Be
sure to put these away after
use to prevent accidental con-
sumption.
Be safe for a fun and
warm winter!

Hear those holiday
bells? Soon theyll
be ringing in the
New Year. But befor e the
clock strikes 2013, you have
opportunities to reduce your
2012 federal income tax bill.
Heres a grab-bag of sugges-
tions.
1.Plan for the AMT. The
annual exemption may
change, but the usual triggers
items that can create
alternative minimum tax lia-
bility, such as certain large
deductions are the same.
2.Education incentives.
Prepaying qualifying expens-
es for the first semester of
2013 can get you a larger
credit or deduction this year.
3.Family gifts. Take advan-
tage of the expiring $5.12
million lifetime gift exclu-
sion by sharing the wealth
and the tax burden with
lower-bracket family mem-
bers.
4.Deferred plans. Maximize
contributions to retirement
plans such as your 401(k) or
IRA, and fund other tax-
favored accounts, such as
health savings accounts.
5.Charitable contributions.
Gifts to qualified charities
made on your credit card by
December 31 qualify for a
deduction this year, even
though youll receive the
credit card statement in
January.
6.Itemized vs. standard
deduction. Shift expenses
such as property taxes
between years to bunch
deductions and get the most
tax benefit.
7.Disaster relief. Check for
a potential refund, and con-
sider amending your 2011
return to claim your loss if
you live in a federally
declared disaster area.
8.Investment cost basis.
Understand your cost basis
choices before capturing cap-
ital gains or losses, especially
when selling mutual funds.
9.Temporary depreciation
deductions. Assets pur-
chased for your business or
rental property before year-
end may qualify for acceler-
ated depreciation methods
that are scheduled to expire
on Dec. 31.
10.Kiddie tax. Instead of
transferring assets to your
children to save for future
education expenses, consider
contributing to a 529 plan,
which can limit exposure to
kiddie tax on unearned
income.
Contact us to discuss
these and other tax-saving
and planning ideas suited to
your particular situation.

Cliff will bring? The answer
is quite simple:
We must all minimize our
standards of living due to
our reduced income after
increased taxation.
We must reduce it further by
over-funding our retirement
plans to offset the effects of
massive inflation that is virtu-
ally guaranteed to occur.
We must maximize our sav-
ings and investing in tax-free,
tax-deferred and tax-advan-
taged vehicles to effectively
combat the unabated tax and
spend opposition the govern-
ment put in our path.
Federal programs, today
thought as entitlements, must
be curtailed, reduced or elimi-
nated, including Social
Security and Medicare. Asset
and Needs Analysis assess-
ments will be implemented to
determine eligibility even
though people paid-in for their
benefits. Committees will be
formed to decide who will
receive benefits and whose
payments into the system will
be reclassified as donations for
others!
This is my prediction. A
sad one, yes, but I believe it to
be inevitable. I can visualize
my letter, coming in the mail
at age 67: Mr. Charnet, the
government has determined
that your retirement age has
been postponed to age 75. At
age 74 and 11 months, my
final letter will appear in
the mailbox: Congratulations,
Citizen. It has been deter-
mined that since you have
accumulated a net worth, asset
base and an annual income
above the public median for
your age, we have determined
that your contributions into
the system will be redirected
for the public good. This is an
honor and you should feel
proud to be an American!
The letter will be signed by the
Committee for the Public
Good and Welfare of
America.
Hold on to your seats and
hats, folks; the ride down the
Fiscal Cliff is fast and furious.
My advice is to schedule an
appointment with your finan-
cial advisor as soon as possible.

perity Group. APG is the pre-

Winter break can be
the perfect respite
for school-aged
children. Although not quite
halfway through the school
year, the timing of winter
break does come when kids
might be preoccupied with
the holiday season and all that
comes with it.
Kids may be distracted
about parties and presents, but
parents may be preoccupied
with finding ways their kids
can spend their time during
winter break a typically two-
week hiatus from school
that begins shortly before
Christmas and ends with kids
return to school shortly after
New Years Day. Parents fac-
ing the dilemma of finding
something for kids to do dur-
ing winter break should con-
sider the following tips.
Take a vacation. Vacation is
the easy way out. Winter
break might mark the only
time until summer that par-
ents can spend quality time
with their kids completely
away from the distractions of
everyday life. Vacation can
mean a trip to warmer cli-
mates or simply packing up
the car to go spend time with
the grandparents. If theres
any vacation time to spare,
consider hitting the road.
Teach kids some practical
lessons. Kids likely wont miss
the classroom during winter
break, but that doesnt mean
there arent enjoyable ways for
kids to learn while theyre
away from school. Teach kids
practical lessons, like how to
cook a favorite meal or how to
fix things around the house.
This gives parents a chance to
spend some quality time with
their kids while encouraging
kids to learn beyond the class-
room. And who knows, such
lessons at home may uncover
a childs hidden talent.
Encourage kids to read for
pleasure. Reading improves
vocabulary and can stimulate
a childs imagination. During
the winter break, encourage
kids to read a book or the daily
newspaper for pleasure, assur-
ing them there wont be any
quizzes or tests after each
chapter. Get the ball rolling
with a few books given as pres-
ents during Christmas or
Chanukah. Or take a trip to
the local library and let kids
choose their own books.
Soak up some snow. Parents
who work from home can
liven up the day during winter
break by heading outside with
the kids to build a snowman or
have a snowball fight. Moms
and dads will enjoy the break
from work while kids get some
fun in the snow.

Tim, it happened to Charlie
Brown, it happened to TheSmurfs, and its gonna happen
to us!
4.I want an official Red Ryder,
carbine action, 200 shot range
model air rifle.
5.Bless this highly nutritious
microwavable macaroni and
cheese dinner and the people
who sold it on sale. Amen.
6.Iris, in the movies, we have
leading ladies and we have the
best friend. You, I can tell, are aleading lady, but for some rea-
son, youre behaving like the
best friend.
7.Who gave you permission to
tell Charlie there was no Santa
Claus? I think if were going to
destroy our sons delusions, I
should be a part of it.
8.I want to wash my hands, my
face, my hair with snow.
9.Were not just doing this for
us. Were doing it for the kids.For every kid who ever sat on
Santas lap. For every little girl
who left cookies and milk for
Santa on Christmas night. For
every little boy who opens a
package Christmas morning
and finds clothes instead of
toys. It breaks my heart.
10.We all know that Christ-mas is a big commercial racket.
Its run by a big Eastern syndi-
cate you know.
11.I fear you more than any
specter I have seen. But as I
know your purpose is to do me
good, and as I hope to live to be
another man from what I was, I
am prepared to bear your com-
pany, and do it with a thankful
heart. Will you not speak to
me?12.Seeing is believing, but
sometimes the most real things
in the world are the things we
cant see.
13.Light the lamp, not the rat,
light the lamp, not the rat! Put
me out, put me out, put me
out!
14.Tell me something, Billy.How come a cute little guy like
this can turn into a thousand
ugly monsters?
15.Wanna see some magic?
OK, lets watch you disappear!
16.Thats not my Christmas!
My Christmas is filled with
laughter, and joy... and this: my
Sandy Claws outfit. I want you
to make it.
17.Thats neither pig nor pork,
its beef.18.I passed through the seven
levels of the Candy Cane for-

twirly gum drops, and then I

Part of the enjoyment
of the holiday seasoninvolves spending time
in the kitchen whipping up
delicious treats. Particularly
for young children, baking
sugar cookies with Mom or
Dad and then decorating the
creations can be a festive way
to spend a day.
Those short on time can
turn to store-made sugar cookie
dough for their cookie making,
but those who want theauthentic taste of cookies from
scratch, there are many recipes
from which to choose.
This recipe for rolled sugar
cookies produces cookies that
will hold up well to cutting and
baking. Theyre also quite deli-
cious.
Rolled Sugar Cookies
112 cups butter, softened
3 cups white sugar4 eggs
2 teaspoons vanilla extract
5 cups all-purpose flour
2 teaspoons baking powder1 teaspoon salt
1.Cream together the butter
and sugar in a large bowl until
smooth. Beat in the eggs and
vanilla.
2.Mix the dry ingredients
together and add to the wet
ingredients until incorporated.
Cover and refrigerate the
dough for at least one hour.
3.Preheat the oven to 400 F.
On a surface coated with someconfectioners sugar, roll out
the dough to between 14 and 12
inch thickness (a thinner cook-
ie will be crispier). Cut out
shapes with a cookie cutter.
4.Line a cookie sheet with
parchment paper. Place cookies
1 inch apart on the parchment.
5.Bake around 5 to 7 minutes,
or just until the edges of the
cookies start to brown. Remove
promptly from the cookie sheetand cool on a rack.
6.Decorate the cookies using
icing (recipe below)
when the cookiescool, or sprinkle with
colored sugar while
cookies are warm.
Makes 5 dozen.
Cookie Icing (Covers
1 dozen cookies)
1 cup confectioners
sugar
2 teaspoons milk
2 teaspoons light corn
syrup14 teaspoon almond
extract
Assorted food coloring
1.In a small bowl, stir together
confectioners sugar and milk
until smooth. Beat in corn
syrup and almond extract until
icing is smooth and glossy. If
icing is too thick, add more
corn syrup.
2.Divide the icing into separatecontainers to add choice of col-
ors. Mix until well blended.
3.Use a piping tip and pastry
bag to outline the cookie in a
thin bead of the icing. Allow to
dry.
4.Then use a paintbrush to fill
in the design with the remain-
der of the icing.
5.Wait an hour or more for the
icing to completely hardenbefore serving.

Real estate investors
have many reasonsfor making such
investments, but one of the
more common motives
behind a decision to invest in
a property is the belief that
real estate rarely depreciates
in value. Though the recent
housing crisis might have
debunked that myth once
and for all, real estate is still
widely considered a sound
investment, one that manypeople wish they could afford
to make.
Those who have already
invested in real estate know
how difficult it can be to
maintain a property much
less improve it, which should
be high on an investors pri-
ority list. But improving a
property does not have to
involve a complete overhaul
or any other dramaticchanges. In fact, there are
several simple ways investors
can improve their real estate
investments and improve
their chances of turning a
large profit when they decide
to sell a property.
Hire a property manage-
ment firm. Some real estate
investors, especially those
new to the business who just
purchased an investment andhave little money to spare,
shy away from hiring a prop-
erty management firm. But
such a company is worth the
expense for investors with lit-
tle time or know-how with
regard to fixing a home. A
property management firm
will ensure the building is
kept in shape, and depending
on your agreement with the
company, may even take careof cleaning vacant apart-
ments, readying them for
showing and renting them to
new tenants. Perhaps the
biggest advantage to working
with an effective property
management firm is the like-
lihood that they will turn
over the vacant apartment
quickly, ensuring you arent
losing money when tenants
move out.Carefully vet prospective
tenants. One of the easiest
ways a property can fall into
disrepair is to allow bad ten-
ants to move into the build-
ing. Its understandable that
investors want to get a build-
ing occupied as quickly as
possible so they can use ten-

ants rents to pay for theproperty. But bad tenants can
cause damage to the property,
and their behavior might
encourage reliable fellow ten-
ants to find a new living situ-
ation. When looking to fill a
vacancy, establish a minimum
income requirement for
prospective tenants and ask
applicants to produce proof of
income and references frompast landlords. This increases
the chances you will find a
respectful tenant whos fully
capable of paying their rent
on time.
Work quickly. Few people
want to rent forever, so
expect significant turnover,
especially if your investment
property is a larger complex
with multiple dwellings. If
you arent working with aproperty management com-
pany, an easy way to maxi-
mize your profits on an
investment property is to
work quickly when turning
apartments over after a ten-
ant moves out. This includes
painting and cleaning the
apartment, and the process
should go smoothly if you
properly vetted tenants and
