I funny story...when my wife and I put in a pool a couple of years ago we decided to get a HELOC as I can't do my own HELOC here at my mortgage company. 

I’m currently in a duplex that I house hack and the tenant’s rent covers my property taxes, my water and sewer bills, and almost all maintenance costs.

I remember when I completed my first ground-up new construction here in Chicago - FELT AMAZING to finish.Our biggest lessons learned were around getting the water service done early on because of our harsh winters and making sure we keep our designer in check! 

**Basement Water Damage:** The walls in the basement are wet up to 15 inches, and it appears that water is seeping in from the ground.3.

If you pour a concrete slab here in Tampa, Florida, it will raise your Property Taxes because it is not "permeable" for water drainage.

I also put in exclusions for the water heater and furnace so that they are responsible for those.What type of language will make the AS-IS language stick and make it very clear that they are required to maintain the heating and water systems?

The estate offers 9 bedrooms, 10 full & 3 half baths, bowling alley, indoor basketball court, theater, 3 swimming pools, 3000 sf master closet, housekeepers quarters and much more.

If the unit is located in an area full of single professionals who have good jobs and no kids and would be concerned about evictions on their credit you're probably better off to limit your renter pool to the top candidates. 

If you want to spend the money, you can split the water.
