It’s a safety hazard. If there is a fire or anything, she wouldn’t have a way to get out.

She works and of course would have to leave for that, if not for anything else.

*C/C- neighborhood

Hi guys.

Landlord question:

We have a two story duplex in a C/C- neighbor in Orlando FL. Our upstairs tenant has been complaining about the staircase conditions since she moved in January.

We had it scheduled to be replaced and it’s finally happening. Contractor said it will take about 2-3 days. We gave notice to the tenant so she can make arrangements to stay someplace else and she is saying “that is not going to happen” because she doesn’t have anywhere else to go (we know as a fact her mother in law lives across the street in a big house).

Anyways, that tenant is on default since April. She was only out of work for 2 weeks but refuses to pay the rents because she said she knows she doesn’t have to (we know, topic for another discussion, but it’s just to illustrate her character).

What can we do?

She obviously can’t stay there locked in upstairs without stairs. What if she refuses to leave when the stairs need to be removed?

Thanks! 
That's what I think. Since it's my first flip, I want to make sure I'm doing the right things. 

Hi! I need your help!
We flipped a house that had some electrical done prior to us taking over.
House is now under contract and we wanted to get the electrical work done permitted for our peace of mind. We did just cosmetic changes like changing the outlets, light switches, and ceiling fans. The electrical panel had to be changed because there was no cover, but none of the breakers were touched. Apparently they are not up to code because they are from different brands, so in order to get this permit done, we would have to change the entire panel ($2,000 estimate). We are apprehensive that once we ask for the permit, the city might want to rewire the entire house or do some crazy things that will break the flip. House is 50 years old. We are afraid to open a can of worms with this.

We heard about an "electrical safety report" and from what we heard, it would suffice for future liability and apparently it only costs around $200, correct? We were told the FHA was going to request that safety inspection report but they didn't. Now the house is ready to close but we want to do the right thing to protect the buyer and release us from ANY type of liability.

Does anyone have experience with this type of 'impasse"?

Should we just roll the dice and go for the permit or do you guys think a satisfactory safety report will protect us from any future liability?

We want to do the right thing but don't want to overdo it.

Thank you so much for your time and help!

Wow!

Congratulations on your success @George Yu and THANK YOU for sharing your story.

I can’t believe you create the wind pouch by the way. My old days of travel journeys and nights at airports dreamt about a product like that.

I’ll not ask anything at this time, as I’ll read all the 200 posts first. I believe most of my questions have been answered already. At this time I just wanted to congratulate you!
