It could be one less item to maintain/repair in the future, but the home may be less visually appealing to tenants.

In regards to your question about buying the rate down, I like to break it out into your 'break-even period' to visualize how long it will take to recoup your funds paid upfront.

I have texts and emails saying that he was supposedly following through with his work but he would never back it up with visual proof and just word of mouth.I am looking to see how to recoup my money to pay someone else to finish the work rather than just take a huge financial loss by selling off the property for what I paid for it and losing out on the rehab funds I had put into this project.

It seems like the only differences with the 2023 reappraisal are that a visual inspection of the outside of the property may occur, and that there's a new website that provides more resources/transparency regarding the process (which I would think is a good thing). 

Potential guests scrolling through Airbnb listings are more likely to click on a visually appealing listing.

They often even visualize it or act as if it has already happened.2.

@Gordon CuffeGreat visual.

You can visually see all of the available units in the greater Temple area.

The'map'tab that they included was neat too, in concept to visualize it all... but useless when using it.  

I’d include a copy of the bill for each notice put up so they can visually see the costs they are incurring for their inequities
