As soon as I and renewed the lease the tenant wrote me this long message with all these things wronge, including drain smells bad(she’s been putting bleach down the drain to kill the odor, the lights in the kitchen and bedroom are flickering(this ones easily fixable) & the bathroom floor is in-caving because of water damage(she suggested a new shower door).

cody, i would get written policy made up and hung placed publically all around entrances and exits, over due it at eye level, then email and mail same new bld policy to all units. legally must have signs posted up along with contract. as per my lawyer written signs are like public bld policy. then require in lolicy a fee. i charge $25 per butt and $55 hour cleaning fee. and then buy and   install activtek system from me to kill all smoke odors and hit them with fines for having use air scrubbers. keep sending them air and surface cleaning bills every 3 days.

Was the odor seeping through shared vents or through firewall or what?

((This is what I'm note sure about)>> The investor presents an invoice to the Seller which is paid through escrow.I don't know if that last part is still the case with the new method, but from reading other forms, it was this act that caused the attorney general to cry foul (don't know what state or if there were other circumstances).Has anyone signed up for the Platinum?

They must cost the lender a ton of money to keep up the yards and I've been hearing lots of stories about all those big pools going foul.

Nobody cries foul when a business declares bankruptcy, because it is understood that it is "just business."

There is always plenty of foul play, voter intimidation and misleading voters.

I have never had a unit that smelled like grease or for that matter had any odors that were significantly different from any luxury home.

of course that's up to the seller to require it.u could do deals where you put no money down, place a contingency in it that lets you off the hook if you are unable to find a buyer - no foul no harm, if the seller is okay with a 30day option.you might market it as being a better value for them because you'll focus all your efforts on their house whereas a realtor who's going to make money from them (rather than you making it from the buyer) and the realtor is focused on a 100 properties - not particularly yours.

No foul and no crime if the cash back happens with the lender's blessing.John Corey
