@Nikki Grizzle - the road of least resistance (prevent communication issues) is to hold the tenant responsible for anything that's not normal wear and tear.

easy fix might be to simply lengthen the p trap depth so the path of least resistance for air is the vent stack and also less easy to siphon water

Unfortunately because of the abundance of water that the south needs from the north, there was too much resistance, so it fell through.

Your first sentence is a very weird assumption, and couldn't be farther from the truth.Contractors often will suggest the makeover or path that makes the most sense for them (and what will give the path of least resistance).

If at anytime in the process they give resistance I let them know we are not a fit on move on to the next inquiry and I get LOTS of inquiries on a weekly basis.

New windows/doors and wind resistant siding as well because it's a drafty house in the winter/storms, which I can also agree with. 

For that reason, I'm so hesitant and resistant on getting PM, I just feel like I would never see my money come in! 

Hi Alvaro,If you add or extend any electrical for the new kitchen, they may also make you bring the electrical system up to code regarding AFCI/GFCI, Tamper Resistant electrical outlets, etc...You might want to talk to an electrician about that cost also.Good Luck!

Medical real estate has historically been recession-resistant due to the fact these properties provide the ‘room and board’ for healthcare tenants delivering a basic necessity for their communities, healthcare.

Make the rent so cheap they can't resist and tell them they can literally destroy it.
