I had to order a VIN plate for the MH, have it inspected and wait about two weeks for the title to arrive.

You could add a small kitchenette (hot plate, sink, toaster oven, fridge) and rent the basement out or alternatively you could live in the basement and rent the upstairs.

It would be like setting up a new plate and fork for every raisin you ate. 

It is also common that a LOI is not binding.You CAN, in a lot of cases, use the local Realtor board boiler plate contract and add an addendum that clarifies or adjusts the verbiage.  

Not only did they tat themselves from head-to-toe, but they also adorned their horses in elaborate metal plates, basically "chroming them out" like a biker does with a new Harley...lol.

you're not responsible for inconvenience expenses to the tenant for something not due to your negligence - and I would consider having to use a hot plate or a microwave in the living room for a week an inconvenience, not an "unlivable" situation - if he went to stay in a hotel, is he going to be cooking 4 star meals there?
