Small leak in Cooper (heat) pipe...

You will need your custodians cooperation.

You are going to need each other's cooperation with repairs over time and this would be a great goodwill gesture on your partThere is no downside for you as in Texas the tax value is no indication of market value and does not effect the market value.

@Kyle Cooper... forgot to mention.In normal circumstances, leaving a 401(k) at a former employer is an option. 

That being said I do appreciate that you need to sell and I am happy to cooperate with you for showings and other matters related to selling. 

We have sold homes before with less than cooperative tenants and sometimes you just need to post notice (if the lease allows) and enter.

There has been substantial appreciation in this area.I have a few questions from the gurus here:1) Is there any way to get an exact payoff amount from the bank without the cooperation of the borrower?

@Cooper Marcus Thanks for the info. 

X's continued refusal to cooperate, they had no choice but to arrest him."

And, to this end, when notice is given, landlord will do a walkthrough to determine the smoking status.I really like the ‘nice guy’ approach of telling them, ‘hey, I wanted to bring this to your attention...’ that sets a tone of cooperation in my view.
