I'm not too sure about this case, though, since it almost sounds like these two are working together to milk you.Why are you a "month into this rehab"?

I don't know of any cheap source, but here's a business opportunity for someone: My county separates glass out for recycle, but no one buys it.

I would want the tenant out so I could get the rodent problem under control and get a full scope of the termite damage.That is what I would be concerned with as well as your re-tenant and lost rent costs until you rent the unit out again.Since you own a duplex they have shared walls.You have to make sure the other tenant is clean or the pest control service will make ZERO DIFFERENCE.The reason is even if you put poison down but food is available the pest will leave the poison and eat the food.You have to close off all exterior gaps of the building,keep tree branches away from critters getting in,keep trash in trash cans and away from the building for pick up,clean unit top to bottom,pull out stove and fridge in kitchen and degrease and sanitize.After years of recycling tenants you would not believe what builds up back there that attracts and breeds pests.Good Luck

Absolutely, if you want to have milk and cookies with your sellers or psychoanalyze them - have at it.

This house is now an "A" property with "A" tenants.Like Nicole, I like to restore and recycle as much as possible. 

With BRRRR it might take a bit longer but you can keep recycling your money over and over.

The walk ways in the house were filled with about 2 feet of trampled trash like milk carton, and beside the walkways the stuff was stacked to the ceiling.

Keep recycling this process until you are able to acquire enough cash or resources to purchase a rental without having to move.

Do you have recycling where you are at?

Use recycled rubber tire mulch, not the real stuff for example.
