Like someone else mentioned, doing a short term rental in a secluded basement that is very private and walled off is one thing, but sharing the same refrigerator, kitchen thermostat, etc. with a complete stranger seems like it will introduce more problems than what the money is actually worth.

I would clean it off wait acouple days and respray that surface.

Quote from @Jaron Walling: @Jonathan S.

It will be a single-story ranch with a full semi-finished basement. 9' walls.

I believe it is a larger issue than what we define as the economy, which is mostly measured in corporate profits and Wall Street performance, this is not what the average person perceives.

From what I’ve read in the Wall Street Journal, locking in a low interest rate now could be a smart move given today’s economic trends.

Storm sewer, storm pond, sewer lines, water access, fire hydrants, public bathrooms, surface coverage, sidewalk or bike paths, setbacks, power lines and right of ways known and unknown, road access, etc. 5.

For example if you asked him to only paint a wall but the wall does not look good because the drywall itself is bad - that is not his problem because you did not want the drywall fixed.Specify what it is you want done and if complete you will release the payment. if he disagrees then he may sue and then let the court decide.
