And it’s always possible the house will shift back to where it was (this happened with my parents’ house that was affected by the clay issues I mentioned - they never had to repair anything and I do not believe they had drywall cracks or floor damage).

Looking for advice… my husband & I having been living in his parent’s investment property in California since they purchased the home in 2013 for Ryan.

Withholding properties is an appreciating asset.

Parents decided to sell since are retiring elsewhere.

Las Vegas is my market.I have my parents house and im planning on having them move in with me so i can rent their house out and make some money.Their house was built in 1991 and hasn’t had any rehab done, and needs some serious work.

I am also working on building a credit history by having my first credit card set up as an authorized user on my parents credit card account.

The second unit will either be a rental or home for a parent.

I’m living at home (parents house) so I don’t pay rent.

I don’t know about CA but in TX there is essentially not much they can do (such as withhold rent, etc) if you simply ignore their requests.

If we cannot clean now, can I hire a professional cleaner upon her departure and withhold security deposits?
