My question is can I wrap the closing costs into the loan instead of having to dish out 8000-9000 for this out of pocket?

He handed me Dawn dish soap. :) Quick education on dishwashers and problem solved.Not sure if that is what is happening to you, but the phantom water can be caused by an overspilling dishwasher.

It's clear water and my dog uses it as a water dish, so, it's not sewer.I've lived in this house before for 1.5 years (moved out 5 years ago) and didn't notice this, but I also didn't do much yardwork in the front, which I'm doing now. 

I'm a 30 year old single man, so sometimes dishes get left in the fridge for a while and they start to stink.

Do you want to walk into a restaurant and see half the tables full of dishes and it takes 30 min for your order to be served to you? 

Dishes piled up, bags of trash or clothes its hard to tell but  clothes  are thrown everywhere, roaches every where.

There were old dishes in the dishwasher (not clean) and old food in the cabinets.

I used Hughes Satellite Internet at that time.

. :) On the flip side, there are over 30K students that attend USF, with  satellite campuses in other locations that draws traffic and perhaps STR revenue?!

Then it boils down to estimating Electric/ Water/ Internet & Cable or Satellite and cleaning fees.
