I'm trying not to take out the original trim and am thinking about 1/4 inch drywall.Also, the shiplap walls are not perfectly flush...so I'm expecting a bunch of floating of mud. 

Once the option date expires it can be renewed (unusual, but it does happen) by he prospective buyer paying another option fee like the first one.Clear as mud, right?

There was sheet rock dust and mud on literally everything in the house.  

With vacation rental would it be able to support itself during mud season? 

About an inch wide..... requiring mudding and paint over.....As mentioned, they signed a clear checklist but in going back to do the repairs, we did have to get a contractor to repair this..... and the landlord wasn't letting this pass these tenants......What have you communicated for your past vacated tenants?

The wholesale properties have either been too expensive, or in an undesirable area (I don't want to be a slum lord), or in a location too far away. 

Not that it wouldn't be a good idea it's just not necessary or common practice.In conclusion I still have yet to receive an apology for the statement that you made earlier and I expect one before the end of the day Sir.I'm a good loan consultant/processor and I have helped many members on BP obtain financing and I will not have my good name run through the mud by some Realtor who doesn't understand California RE law!!!

Again, Im not a lawyer, but our lawyer as our name and address listed as agents, as well as having the LLC listed as the landlord.That should make it clear as mud.

Immovable undesirables (landfills, sewage plants).

Choose a darker color that will contrast against the light color of the cabinets and will mask some stains/mud.
