For low-income housing projects, SB256 would expand that list to include applicants with “a prior history of an inability to pay rent.”SB256 would also prevent a landlord from charging a late fee until the rent has been late for three days.

Hi Wesley,There are furniture repair finish restoration contractors who use hot melted color sticks and stains to blend scratches in fine furniture. 

If a landlord has freezing issues they should be taking action to prevent the possibility of freezing not relying on tenants.

Here is my take: It might be time for updates, new LVP flooring throughout (you should be able to get decent quality LVP for about $4/ft installed), online the carpet looks stained, and the edges of the linoleum in the kitchen and bath look grimy; having a patch of carpet in the living room makes the place look smaller.

It is bound happen - but just have those risk management controls in place to prevent a big loss.
