Begin with the cheapest cure to the most obscene first.

Thats what I figured.I've read the Iowa Landlord/Tenant laws from top to bottom, and it appeared as long as I'm not the one requesting shutoff and so long as tenants are in charge of utilities that it can't be considered a constructive eviction.I did in fact let the tenant know that they need to contact the utility company immediately, I'm going to also send out a 7 day notice to cure as its plainly stated that tenants must have all utilities in their name and kept current at all times.  

Also if that weren't the case there maybe chemicals in the new finish that may have activated the chemicals in the old finish and that is why it isn't curing.

Usually not and you can cure the matter if need be.....might be brain damage, but you can ask for forgiveness.See your attorney!  

Here's how to set up a deal:Property value (after repaired value) Less estimated:Cost of repairsPrincipal balance of loansCost-to-cure loan(s)Equals estimated equityI presume you are trying to buy equity at a discount.

Issue a 5 day cure or quit. 

At this meeting I would also inform them if there is another blatant violation of your policy you will be issuing a 5 day notice to cure or quit.

Predatory would be putting someone in an L/O that can't qualify over the term, you can avoid that if you can show that they could if they can cure the matter that keeps them from qualifying and that they know what they must do to cure such matters.

Line of title for the mortgagor is likely flawed and can take time for the bank to get a clear title or cure deficiency!!!

Also, if there is a Lender Tolerance Cure listed, does that follow the same treatment?
