He left.We then called another company to check it the following day, that tech suggested replacement.He replaced the unit, then couldn’t light it either.Turns out, the former tenants called the gas company and requested gas be SHUT OFF to the home.In other words, the original unit didn’t need replacing.We called the gas company, who confirmed that they only did what the tenants asked, which was to do a shut off, and can schedule a turn on.After checking that the security deposit check wasn’t yet cashed by the former tenants, we canceled the check and immediately sent them a message indicating what took place, the expense and time spent due to their actions, and a request to send the balance of our expenses, which now were more than the deposit balance.Now they hired an attorney and are demanding the balance.In the meantime, the townhome’s association sent us a complaint stating that the patch of grass in front of the home needs repair at the owner’s expense because the tenants’ pet continuously urinated in the same areas, causing damage.

I talked to 2 agents and rode my bike over to the property to check out the outside of the property 15000 is the number they want for back taxes. the back porch is usable but has a semi-crack in the foundation, I noticed some meaning patches of mold or growth on the upper front porch and mild growth like leaves and trees around the property. but it has a lot of potential.

Now who has to pay to patch up all of those bullet holes in the walls and probably replace the door?

@Hanna M. hmm.. that's interesting. what I meant to get it rent ready, is to patch up some holes on the wall or get the house painted between turnovers. 

I'm in the process of replacing the flooring in the main living area, patching walls and re-painting.  

LP is also crazy when it comes to concrete - where most cities allow you to patch cracks, LP wants you to replace!

Looking to put in paver walkway, landscape rocks and a patch of dirt for my newly built ADU!

I found a number of cracks within some of the buildings that had lateral movement, as well as ground water, which means there is likely a broken sewer line somewhere nearby, plus a number of buildings had asbestos siding, and all the roofs have been patched to death, tho they claim they replaced them.

63111 (patch area) is a tough zip code due to its history and flood zone risk.
