I'll even cover your $50 for your seat in the room (you pay your own travel, meals and accomodations).I suggest a road trip because, with your attitude, going anywhere near the TSA or airport / airline security would be a virtual guarantee of more Congressional hearings.I am curious, however, about "things that will make Renatus look good".

Interest rates do not happen in a vacuum.  

You could hook up an air line to the incoming water line and pressurize it to find more leaks with out the water as well.  

It does not take much to give off odor.I had a unit that had a wet dog smell, I did a complete remodel and still had the odor I found a big hair ball under the fridge.Paint the subfloor with KilzCaulk trim (hair can get between wall and baseboard)Vacuum registers and cold air return ducts and change filterOpen windows for a few days can helpPaint or wash all surfacesIf unit has been vacant drain traps may be empty allowing sewer gas backup

Our management company is very good that they will also employ a "dynamic" pricing of the units based on market availability and demand much like airlines do by raising tickets prices as the plane fills up.Texas is a very friendly business and landlord state.  

I would also recommend  hard backer  for the subfloor its great.The demo dust can go every were but use some plastic and get your day labor to vacuum up .

People are clicking a button to get an idea of the value of a home (They don't even have to vacuum and let someone step foot in to see the piano sized hole in the living room floor).

Our lender on this one was a pilot for a big airline company.
