So if they tell you to file you have to file.Settling out of court though I don't believe is in his best interest unless the tenant is out, the money due is paid and the place has been checked for damages and the remaining deposit is slotted and ready in a check.

2) For you historic home lovers, anything we should keep in mind during a possible renovation like this?

I love real estate and I say this after taking a 63k loss on one flip less than a year ago and I would still do it even if it didn't pay as well as it did although it does.

Whether it’s investing, becoming healthy or being a most fantastic lover of your spouse and family, you’re the one who’s in control of how successful you can be.

I love RE!!!!...

Your electric panel might have some slots where "tandem breakers" can be used, which would allow for adding circuits. http://www.ashireporter.org/homeinspection/article...

I always hate that going back and fourth with someone trying to find those free time slots that match up or double booking.

This is why I love real estate!

But if you are able to house two dog lover tenants they may be very, very long term (as few other rental situations would fit) and even willing to pay some premium, as mentioned.

This is why I love Real Estate.
