I'm thinking there would be 2 types of customer set ups Landlords are customers not the tenants, so we won't just work on stuff a tenant submits without owner consent.Monthly subscription- People who don't want to deal with maintenance period and want to use our call center and are willing to give a blanket budget limit approval of 100-200 dollars for casual repairs (leaking faucet, fan repairs, etc) or for scheduling preventative and restorative maintenance (landscaping, drain cleaning, etc).

Since I have master policy from HOA, he thinks $50k should be enough to restore the inner walls, floors etc..

We have a Restore/Habitat for Humanity that sells very nice appliances, doors, windows, flooring, light fixtures etc.

I mentioned, that if she wanted these items, it would be a tenant requested improvement and she would have to pay for it with the understanding that she would have to pay to restore the unit to the original condition when she moved out.

It's yours to do as you wish, including restore possession by eviction of former owners, heirs, tenants and/or squatters.Title insurance is another matter.

After that many years of that many animals, the renovation required to restore the premises necessitates the unit be vacant.  

As a mortgage banker having dealt with a whole number of credit repair companies, all 3 CRAs as well as other credit restoration/support companies, I can tell you that you're best bet is to have the following:1 - 2 installment loans which would include a mortgage, car loan, car insurance, student loans, etc.  3, yes 3 revolving credit lines (so 3 credit cards)carrying a 20% - yes, yikes but I've been told by many, many sources this is correctKeep in mind that the credit score you pull from creditkarma and freecreditreport.com will NOT be the same scores you get when a lender pulls your credit for mortgage purposes. 

If it is significant water-mold-moisture damage, contract with a restoration company.

You say your tenant is Section 8 - is there a set amount that Sec 8 pays and the tenant pays the rest or is Sec 8 picking up the whole tab?

Any advice or stories shared appreciated.I'm in LA, and here's my advice:Offering a 15% rent reduction is going to haunt you for years because rent control won't allow you to restore the original rental rate when markets rebound.
