If there's a child who lives in the unit who has an elevated blood level, even if it came from outside the unit, and you don't have the certificates, you're going to be target #1 and you won't be covered by insurance without the certificates.So just on that issue alone, yes, even if you have to put it on credit cards, I would get those new windows in, on all the units you're renting out.

Once real estate is in your blood  - it stays forever!

If your a billionaire a couple hundred grand isn’t going to get your blood flowing so don’t expect him to be highly motivated or super on board to work with you
