The woman who heads the building office, don't remember her name, told me that you can get a specialty business license (painter, brick layer etc) and that will allow you to pull your own permit. 

@Mark Nolan Cute.

Don't forget this story:http://www.nytimes.com/1995/12/29/world/a-120-year...Basically a 47 year old man agreed to pay a 90 year old woman the equivalent of about $500 a month for the rest of her life, in exchange, he would get her awesome apartment in the middle of Paris upon her death.Well, she ended up living to be the oldest person in the world, and the man passed away at 77, never getting her apartment, and what's more, then man's widow must continue to send the woman these checks every month, and if she passes away, the man's children must keep them up!

Right now I’m in housing and this one woman has three cats and a dog her daughter abuses.

Causing this landlord any type of legal grief may cause this woman to vamp up her game plan and that is to get this person, her husband, kids and her dog out of her property.Note that the landlord raised the rent $300 dollars per month - means she is serious about getting paid or getting someone out of her property.

The man has 20+ years at two water treatment companies, and the woman is a tenured teacher.

After allowing a woman and her 3 kids to remain in a house for over a year while only paying about 4 months of rent she (and her kids) wrote on the walls, cabinets were torn down, she didn't even let me know she was finally leaving and left the door unlocked, grass uncouth, fixtures gone.

The broker introduces me to a woman who said she manage a lot of the broker's clients' houses and pushed me to sigh a contract with her.

Listen to the podcast with the Syrios brothers, and how the one Brother who handles all the PM work talked a woman out of suing them, got her to pay them everything she owed them, and actually made her want to rent from them again.

Don't assume that the woman will take leave, could be the guy.
