The SmartBuy offer is a two year warranty on HomeSteps purchased properties, and includes electrical, plumbing, air conditioning and heating systems, as well as ductwork and many major appliances like water heaters, stoves, washer and dryers, dishwashers and refrigerators.

That was her idea too.

. :)I believe all of this worked out because I used the GC for my primary residence so I had a former working knowledge and idea of their work ethic and the fact that I was here for the job.This property in MD is too distanced for me to get organized like I would like to be had it been here where I can do better diligence like actually going to contractors office or meeting with them.I do appreciate everyone's candor, suggestions, and advise and I thank you for your time in reading my posts.

I maintain a vendor list over 30 names long from Accountant to Window Washer and must continually update it.

I moved in Sep 1st but did not sign the lease yet now that i have read the lease and i don't agree with some of the terms that were unclear to me when I paid the security deposit one month ago.my landlord has old outdated appliances that I did not get a good look at before I moved in, the refrigerator is banged up on the inside and dirty, the built-in microwave has a large cracked around the door frame a and missing shelve inside, the stove is old and cheap looking, the dish washer is old and missing the bottom panel by the floor, the wash machine works but it is old, the dryer is old and doesn't blow hot air.All appliances look as if they would breakdown at any moment and she wants me to agree to make all repairs and replace if broken. when i moved in many electrical outlets were not working but she got them fixed the next day, i told her about the dryer and she's calling someone to take a look at it but told me i would normally be responsible for the repairs but wouldn't charge me this time since i just moved in.she tells me I'm also responsible for annual maintenance of the fireplace even if i don't use it and the furnace, and want to see a receipt for the maintenance each year.Is this common?

I saw Serena Williams jet one time she had a cool emblem it stood out.. you knew it was her.. !!

It is actually a 2 bed, with a bonus room  Bonus room is a small bedroom(with closet) but the washer and dryer hook up is also in that room.

The kitchen with a washer dryer is not Ikea.

Think one of those shephard cane shaped extension  wands you stand on the ground and the pressure washer type nozzle blows them forward. 

But, when I hear about parents putting their kids in microwaves, dryers, or all the other psychos that abuse their kids -- or leave them on top of a car -- I start to think it's not such a bad idea.Last month, the child placed in a washer in a laundromat made the local news here:http://abclocal.go.com/wpvi/story?
