This is a bid to pipe burst and replace the old clay pipe with one piece seamless brand new pipe.

New roof, new windows, new siding outside, new HVAC system, new pipes and wiring, etc.

If their lease is up jan 31, then they don't have to move anything until then as long as they are out by midnight on the 31st.Let them know they will be responsible for burst pipes. 

My sewer pipe never had a chance.  

Be cautious of outdated plumbing and electrical systems, especially with knob-and-tube wiring and galvanized steel pipes.

Anyways in Dec or Jan , bathroom pipe burst because they never switched on the heating or power, or shut down water - during the coldest winter Seattle has ever seen.

Have fun collecting from someone who peaced out a month ago.3) A landlord/manager should have reasonably priced resources, because not every repair bill is paid by a tenant.I would definitely not put basic faucet replacement in the same category of plumbing as soldering pipe joints behind a wall or installing pressurized systems.

You simply can't effectively work around a spider nest of wiring, piping, ducting, with cramped space to really address vapor installation plus new passive ventilation modification.  

When I told her this wasn’t allowed, she asked what part of the lease prevented it (there wasn’t anything in the lease that prevented it) …needless to say, I changed my lease to clearly state that each room in the house was single occupancy, and that there were limits on the frequency of guests (you live and you learn).This is by no means an exhaustive list of house hacking tips/tricks, it’s just what came to mind…It’s also worth remembering that, even with extensive preparation, house hacking can be challenging, and things WILL go wrong (e.g.; inconsiderate housemates, broken leases, furnaces that kick the bucket at the WORST possible time, etc., etc.).

I have made some upgrades since living here, fully renovated the bathroom and laundry room, upgraded appliances, added a tankless hot water heater, and replaced all galv. pipe with pex.
