Cover it with bird netting rather than plastic sheeting to keep the critters away while letting sunlight naturally sanitize the sand.Backyard sanctuariesThe key feature is water; either a fountain ($500-$1,500), a small pond (DIY for $200; professional job costs $2,000), or a hot tub ($1,000).

Have all the alarms you need and be careful with peeling lead paint with children, don't sand lead paint which creates dust for kids, watch for discrimination possibilities and now watch out for companion animals.BTW networking with other local investors can help you stay on top of your game too.Like most on here say, insurance first.

I would absolutely replace the cabs, with 42" uppers (replacing that inaccessible area above the doors), a 24" deep cab over the reefer with a return or narrow broom closet on the left.Here's an idea I've used for an inexpensive but attractive alternative to granite for your price level: Have a local shop fab up black plastic lam tops with square front edges, and NO 4" splash.

I have NO problem getting renters and I know how important companion animals can be.

This can be accomplished from the interior as well, however it's more effective preventing moisture from coming in (exterior), rather than holding moisture back (interior).been trying hard to avoid excavating. and remember now......there is a span of wall that is nice and clear...and not too cracked up. so whether or not they waterproofed or not........that span of concrete blocks are relatively undamaged. it doesnt make sense that they would waterproof that span, and not the other span.so this is why i think i can just cover the damaged span of concrete blocks with a porch or something so that water wouldnt get to the span of exterior wall. id actually probably use plastic tarp in the beginning, so i could uncover that area during days of sun in hopes that any moisture inside the dirt would evaporate. when it rains, id cover up that area again with a huge plastic tarp.i would also improve the grading, and well the downspouts are already good.i could also do a french drain type thing...but i dont think that would be necessary.im really trying to avoid excavating. i dont want to pay $25K lool. i already have mold issues on interior joists that will need to be blasted off...and these joists are 30ft long and there are probably 50 of them going across the basement. and yesterday i was looking at some studs...and i think i mightve seen some mold on those too. super annoying, man.

Bandit signs don't have to be the corrugated plastic ones stuck on telephone poles.

These people know that most diseases that are transmitted readily through surface contact have more trouble with glazed ceramic surfaces than they do with plastic surfaces.

Not sure if the manufacturer can help, but they might have some insight.Vinyl, and plastics in general, just aren't very reactive.

Accessory structure rules, companion unit rules, and other things come into play too.

Dishwasher stopped working, he says, but when I get there I realize he somehow managed to rip the front pull handle and control board off the machine and broke the plastic.
