Are there any modifications to the written lease?

I had never considered that without permits, certain handymen (I now know a few), would produce such low quality work necessitating the job be completely redone with no method of getting the money back from the scumbag handymen.

Some of the reasons: state law requires a minimum waiting period of delinquency before the foreclosure can be filed; to file, state laws require certain consumer notices be sent to the delinquent borrower, and some time is allotted to that; sheriff sales might only be allowed in one day per month in some counties; court system can get backed up, so that a postponement in one month can mean that the next hearing date is months later, missing many possible sheriff sale dates; borrowers will use bankruptcy; borrowers will attempt loan modifications and there is now law that prohibits "dual tracking" (bank can't negotiate a loan mod and simultaneously pursue sheriff sale).  

You can't...but the homeowner can:  "Negotiating a loan modification or payment plan to pay your defaults, requesting a deed-in-lieu, making a short sale, suing your lender, or filing for bankruptcy are some of the options available."

I know the International Building Code 2009 (Enterprise ‘s current Building Ordinance) has a Modification Clause; which allows the Building Inspector to modify their acceptance to inspection based on their individual discretion.

You can and should require that the tenant pay for all modifications to the bath and the rest of the home.

They did this with Loan Modifications a few years ago, the industry got corrupt and they changed the rules almost overnight.  

I haven't had any complaints from tenants about this charge.The other softwares were pretty good, but here are the deal breakers for each.Tenant Cloud: Tenants cannot setup autopay unless we have the paid versionApartments.com: You cannot upload your own lease, you can only make modifications to their leaseAvail: You cannot upload your own lease, you can only make modifications to their leaseRentRedi: No free version AT THE TIME***I investigated these softwares 8-12 months ago, so some things could have changed.

In the case i saw today the investigation would've necessitated going into the crawl space...and i mean literally crawl space, perhaps a distance of 50 feet to see the full extent of the damage.
