You don't have to see mold, it can be inside walls or other places that are not visible.If they are leaving in July, maybe just suggest she leaves right away.

A year ago economists, Wall Street’s smart money, and pretty much everyone that calls themselves an investor was predicting a recession.

The safe harbor applies to the modification of a building that is not a historic structure if 75 percent or more of the existing external walls are retained in place as internal or external walls, and 75 percent or more of the existing internal structural framework is retained in place.

It is amazing how much these brick walls can bow out before actually failing, and it may be decades, but eventually they will.

Yeah, it's an interesting model--I can see how it could work really well in some scenarios and not work at all in others. ...for one thing, you have to use furnishings that in-line with the look and grade of the property, and which are appealing to the typical tenant--which I'm sure can be a bit hit and miss...   ...I suppose that one hidden benefit with a furnished unit is that you don't have so much wear and tear from tenants moving furniture in and out, hanging pictures on the walls, etc....I just finished a rehab at a LTR property--the tenants were pretty good and didn't cause any excessive wear/damage, but even then, there's always a lot of patching and re-painting that needs to be done after long term tenants leave....

An entire shelf fell off of my wall breaking a few of my antique items, that were not heavy.

I went under contract and my inpsector came back and told me the house has foundation issue. floor sloped and outside brick wall had crack but being patched.

We plan to take out a wall and add an island to open the kitchen up, take the carpet out of the bathrooms (yes, really), replace most of the flooring, finish the 4th bedroom and the rest of the basement, and various other minor updates.
