Instead, the previous landlord installed an electric hot water heater so the sale could go through.Has caused the pipes to freeze in the walls by not keeping the door between the common area and the enclosed back porch closed.He heated his apartment using 5-7 electric space heaters. 

Yeah I'm not a fan of the parlor heather either but it's better than freezing!

@Brett Becker There is great Airbnb opportunities out your way with all the rent freezes going on in Portland.

Constantly freezes and if you need to go back into your text to edit something, the caps lock then remains on until you exit the post...

When people lose their job and can't get another one due to mass hiring freezes they have to sell or face foreclosure, they don't have a choice.

Should another financial crisis befall us, rendering a number of too-big-to-fail banks insolvent, the good news is that taxpayers will no longer be forced to bail them out.The bad news is that these large Wall Street banks can now legally bail themselves out internally (referred to as “bail-ins”) using depositor funds.Thanks to Dodd-Frank, if you happen to hold your money in a savings or checking account at a bank, and that bank collapses, it can legally freeze and confiscate your funds for purposes of maintaining its solvency."

BPO was done (It came in way too high) but I showed why I had offered what I did (Comps and renovation bids), and I begain negotiating with BoA.However, I knew that the sheriff sale was coming up in a month so I requested that they freeze that until we could get the short sale done.

Seriously it's been freezing for a week or longer it's all frozen.

I'm nothing resembling an expert on the subject, but some benefits knock off a portion, some freeze the assessment indefinitely, others for a number of years, things of that nature.

If you are in a seismically active part of the country or a place where water can get in the crack and freeze(expand/contract) it could be an issue eventually...it's pretty small right now and pretty common issue with brick masonry in general....You should consult a mason.Best of luck!
