Feel fortunate that you didn't overpay in any significant way for the work this plumber did do. 

I feel bad for the pitbulls, they need to go somewhere but the owners also need to be responsible with them and as long as you make that clear then you shouldn't have a problem.

network with local agents to see where they took theres. but not much to it but go with who you feel comfortable with.

I feel like the builder had to have known this.

Like many MTR hosts, I feel like it's a big risk to list my properties on Airbnb for longer stays.

I feel like a 100 year old home is going to have a lot of problems even it's renovated - if I hold it long enough it'll appreciate but will my appreciation outweigh all my repairs and Capex.

The entire project took around 3 months with EVERY square in minus the electrical( some added) being gutted and renewed.

Feel free to PM me if you have any questions.  

It also feels like a little bit of analysis paralysis on your side... lots and lots of reading.  

So, the total base move-in costs would be $2500, all paid prior to lease signing.Since choosing a place to live is a very personal decision, please feel free to do a “drive by” of the property, located at 123 Main St., so you can get a feel for the neighborhood.
