I am looking for some good contractors to help me diagnose and fix the issue...

Long story, she had a fall two years ago, incapacitated, 8 months ago diagnosed with liver cancer with 6 - 12 months left.Our thought was to get someone to house sit, and not charge them.

Do you know how long the tech was there diagnosing the problem?

What woke me up to needing to do better was being diagnosed with MS late 2017 and having my first child that came 3 months premature that same year.

Just this month I paid 95 for a HVaC to go Diagnose the AC problem only to find out the tenant already paid someone else to fix it.

Credit is a reflection on how people handle their finances.If you don't diagnose this issue now and start investing in RE you will just create a much larger problem down the road.  

Past payment history for this applicant is like asking for past medical history for someone just diagnosed with cancer.He is facing divorce and retirement at the same time.

On the other hand, you may also give notice (30 days if 10% or under, 60 days if more than 10%) for a rent increase.As far as the issues with contraction and expansion you state, if you have not, try diagnosing that you don't have foundation issues that can later cause more problems.Re #1:Flooring - what kind of kitchen flooring and How old is it and what condition is it in?

Basically you self diagnosed and say you needed one, then you get a letter rubber stamped by a professional.

To achieve that, tenant is expected to do due diligence and exhaust all available resources, e.g. internet research for DIYs videos and articles, to try to diagnose and fix the problem.b.
