Can't gauge how effective that was, but OK, tiny victory.I am frantically brushing up on questions that I need to ask in case he calls again.

I have a situation that I have not run into before and I'm looking for some opinions.I just purchased a 5 acre parcel, and during my due diligence I found a tiny slice of land-locked land along one edge of the property (40x100 land locked - in an area that requires 1 acre minimum to build).  

The only times you run into trouble are when you need the floor to slip under something, if your walls are crooked, if the floor is really uneven, or if you end up with a tiny piece where you shouldn't have a tiny piece (like at an end).  

The design varies, sometimes it is a tiny red triangle shape, other times it is a circle alternating black/white on the face.

Just pay your GC to fit in a new one and patch the drywall when complete.As you mentioned, this is a tiny detail...it's good to keep an eye on costs, but not good to nit pick every last dollar spent.

Now you've got a 500k home fit for a family still with tiny living areas and kitchen.

I don't want to freak them out.I realize 100k is tiny for commercial, but what other options are there?

Sounds like a very small request but the problem is that if you give in to her this time, then she will probably come to you for every tiny little things that bothers her.Personally I think I think you should stay firm and NOT pay for the carpet.

tiny old houses 400-600k disgusting!

For whatever reason, this time around they are pursuing a Japanese-style, 10-year, one-tiny-drop-at-a-time workout.There is no conspiracy theory.
