First thing I see is you're close to hitting the 2 years OO for a tax free sale on any gain...obviously you don't currently have any gain, but if you can wait it out then any future gains would be tax free...it gives you some wiggle room later. 

Since the upstairs tenant already addressed it with the other tenant we would wait until there is another complaint.

He's comfortable waiting until the new year (post-election) or move forward now for the right deal.I thought it was a great question and worth opening a thread to get some other opinions and input. 

The best way is to wait until he passes.

No reminder.Upon completing our task we waited another month.

So if you're at Home Depot or the gas station, better be prepared to do some thumb typing while people wait in line behind you.

wait 25 years. 

Don't wait until it's a problem and then look for a solution; you'll drag out the process.I also recommend that you learn how to screen better.

We are under contract to sell it and supposed to close last week but the city will only issue a 2 DU cert because they "have no record of permits to convert the storefront into a residential coach house"We did a FOIA on the water records which came back with nothing, we are still waiting for the FOIA on the permit records but don't think it will give us anything because we talked to the seller from 1986 and he said the coach house was a storefront when they sold it. 

To my understanding the process is adding my units to a board, waiting for the section 8 representative to contact me when there’s an interested tenant, have an inspection done, screen tenant and have paperwork done correct?
