All of my hair has fallen out. 

Contractor brought up the important point that just covering it up with cement board and trimming out remaining upper 2’ section means that condensation from cold weather outside that would naturally form on the inside of the covered up window section would just run down to the bottom ledge inside the covered up area, and even if the ledge is waterproofed, the water from condensation will just sit there for extended periods since there would be no airflow to dry it properly.

I think the DSCR route would be my option due to high DRI. 

Resident went into crawl space and says it is dry and does not see mold.

Not saying don't look for data, but I am saying, it's more in the comparison of successful properties, not in the cold dry numbers.

Seems cut and dry, right?

Regardless they are on the hook for the lease its pretty cut and dry. 

It’s nice to see 4-5 guys fly in at 6am and walk in to a finished house with dry paint by 3-4pm.

These rubber seals dry out over time and crack causing leaks.

Eventually went to Goodwill for my clothes, ate bologna sandwiches for lunch for years (I don’t/won’t now, lol), cut my own hair (still do, because I don’t have a lot of it anyway), we refinished garage sale furniture and sold it, we shoveled driveways, then got into online sales of dvd/blurays (still do it) weekends and nights sending stuff out.
