But even if I had an old home that met code at the time, what happened to self responsibility?

Renting via Airbnb is assuming a lot. My best friend loves it as its cheaper. He has had some good ones, and some total crap joints. He isn't a fan of FT, but I asked him his opinion. He laughed and shared way too many foul words for me to share. In short, he takes personal responsibility knowing that a new property he isn't familiar with could be great, could be a death trap.

So to the OP, no idea if you are old and blind and need your hand held, or someone young and often drunk, and need your hand held... Either way, we live in a someone else is responsible United States, so have at it and report back.
