To remedy this, I always fix things at the first opportunity regardless of the timeliness of the rent. 

Then paying half upon completion of the work.At the very end I have this:1.If you do not wish to comply with these remedies, you may leave the property within 30 days of the posting of this noticea.You will forfeit your security depositb.You will not be exempted from complying with the terms of the Lease agreementc.You will not be exempted for paying rent for the months that you have occupied the premises (rent will not be prorated)d.You will not be relieved of responsibility for damages to the propertye.You will not be evicted and thus will not have an eviction on your credit history if you remove all of your property from the premises within 30 days, return all keys to Landlord, leave the property as you found it (including but not limited to clean and free of debris) and do not cause any further damagesEviction is costly for myself as well as for you.

Upon remedying this foolish decision I have a few options to consider..1) Purchase a 3+ unit owner occupied multifamily property in Colorado Springs.

If they can provide it and there are no other glowing red flags, sometimes it is worth giving them the chance.I have had applicants whose credit is bad due to medical bills resulting from an unexpected disease, surgery or hospital stay.

Long story short, we will be displaced for 2-3 months during remediation and I have a usable rental that my tenants won’t need during that time.  

Pouring a liquid down the drain line doesn't really do much especially if the lines are clogged or blocked.. after snaking the lines try to use a product that will foam up and fill up the lines.... there's home remedies and store products that you can buy that will work.Lights flickering could be as simple as tightening the light in the socket.
