Don't waste time and do it properly, and don't worry about pennies when it can drag into the thousands.

I guess had he still lived there, Form 4797 would have been the proper choice.

They were good at taking your money and timely kicking out certificates of insurance, but if you have a claim, that is a different story.While they paid a fire claim (an ex-lover of the tenant set the dwelling on fire, because the tenant purportedly broke up with him) NREIG made it difficult, and attempted to undervalue the claim on the basis the property was not properly insured.  

They opted not to put guest access control in and instead installed a key fob system for their tenants, with the expectation that they would just go let guests in by walking down the stairs and opening the door for them. 

There are plenty of centuries old houses on the east coast that have been upgraded and properly maintained over the years.

New laws just make proper screening so much more important.  

We installed a Carrier Furnace & Air Conditioner in a house that was under contract but not closed yet.

While I am surprised at that, I also think it is the proper way to view real estate.I always go back to my first vacation rental purchase as an example:  In 2005, I bought a beautiful, 2-acre creek-side cabin in Cosby (near Gatlinburg) for $240,000. 

Take ownership of your mistake and learn to do the proper due diligence recommended above😊

I'd like to help, but I really don't want to install and then uninstall iTunes to do so.
