Sending out a technician once a year to recharge Freon or replace parts at $300-800 a trip doesn’t seem worth it to me.

Do first hand research and make a mini-vacation of it... and at the end of the day the trip can be a write off! 

Also, we have a trip planned as a family and NOW it’s going to fall In the middle of this eviction.

That saves the boots on the ground from having to make a trip just to show.

Found the outlet where the short would trip to find the wire run with the short.

One round trip flight is at least $600 (not sure where in Alaska the property is), legal fees, your time, etc. 

If the reason they filed was medical bills (which is quite common) you are probably okay, if they filed because of their trip to Las Vegas and they lost too much money, maybe not okay.Every filing is different and you may want to look at the circumstances before you decide.

Run it around the walls so it's not a trip hazard and tell her she can plug it into her TV or her laptop or whatever she wants, but here is your "internet". 

You probably know this already but just for the sake of anyone reading this thread who doesn't... regarding electrical: that 70A panel will need to be replaced, especially if it's Federal Pacific Electric (FPE) , Zinsco, GTE-Sylvania, Westinghouse, or contains any stab-loc breakers (usually with with red stickers) which fail to trip and are prone to starting fires. 70A is not enough for modern power consumption as it is, 100A is now the minimum per code, or even better upgrade to 150A or even 200A service since you have AC.

The destination of the direction I was going was not a bad one, however, some of my life goals (home ownership (X many), a yard for my unborn kids, laundry in my own unit, passive income to go to my unborn kid's field trips on a whim...) were just too far out of striking range within my preferred timeline.
