Separately, I'm having a lawyer review the contract to help prevent my money from disappearing - that's probably my biggest fear.

Our daughter was able to line up friends as tenants for the fall, but we were still left with a 3 month gap between completion of the renovations and the start of the new school rental year, so to plug the gap and prevent a large cash drain we turned to Airbnb, made possible because we chose to furnish the house. 

A second mortgage, however, should not prevent or disrupt the sale.

I have ask my landlord to replace my carpet since it's been over 10 years since I moved in she has agreed to replace the carpet on several occasions  however stated that  the property owner needs to come and inspect the carpet to make sure that  it is not  above and beyond normal wear and tear it is my understanding that in California the carpet should be replaced after 10 years  it is has bugs in it  there is no padding left  it is filthy grungy and it's already been cleaned twice and no  difference  because I am diabetic if I can have it replace laminate flooring that are being installed and all the  recently vacated units  which are being renovated I asked her on several occasions if I can have laminate floor instead of carpet and she stated that they cannot install laminate flooring in upstairs units due to the noise however I just discovered that the unit adjacent to mine on the upstairs floor  just  was renovated and they installed laminate flooring as this discrimination can I demand  this type of flooring  and ask  her about the new laminate flooring on the second floor policy and why I am unable to  have the same  can I demand that type of flooring or do I have to have carpet  I also feel she is being discriminating against me for no reason  she has been short when I ask for repairs  I asked to move to the downstairs unit and she gave me a whole rant about how she doesn't think that the property owners would allow me to move down there based on my rent being late once or twice  and a bunch of other reasons which I don't think it's her business  to point these things out to me or rather she should just give me the application or instructions on how to go about it and let the property owners make that decision  do I have any basis for discrimination  complaint against her with the fair housing authorities  California

But the tenant is Section 8 so I understand a judgment will prevent her from moving...or possibly endanger her voucher if she doesn't pay. 

From what I understand, it's partially to persuade people to upgrade to a pro account but mostly to prevent the forums from being flooded by PM's, agents, contractors, wholesalers, flippers, etc. who are just looking to advertise their products/services. 

That said if they have small kids or an elderly person or for extreme heat I would do what is necessary to prevent someone from being exposed to this heat for long.

If you don't want your information to be present in such a way, you can take the efforts to change the titling of your properties and that'll prevent it from happening in the future, but as for what's already out there, outside of complaining directly to the companies that post the information, you're probably stuck.

That said, they can do very little to prevent you from having a “roommate” or havIng a relative live there - you’ll have to find a tenant willing to support that they are sharing the unit with you if questioned and you could draft a roommate “share” agreement rather than a lease for that fIrst year.

If you have a property in a lower income area and have had this issue it might be a good idea to build something around the meter to prevent vandals/thieves.
