The back door has gaps in the weather stripping at the top through which light can be seen.BATHROOMSThe bathroom GFCI outlets tested as being ungrounded and did not trip when testing with our tester (it did trip when the outlet's button was pushed).The bathroom is missing a window or exhaust fan to help control moisture.INTERIOR ROOMSKitchen and dining room windows have cracked panes of glass, many of the windows have damaged cords at the sides and no longer stay up when opened.

It's like getting a new pair of glasses.

As in "I can hardly wait to ...".In my experience, clients who say things like that are about to slap on their rose colored glasses and make bad decisions.Step back, analyze the situation and proceed briskly - but with a solid game plan in place.

My question on 2.5 months requirement will be why one let it slide to take 6 months to ask them to leave?  

Wholesalers tend to have some rose color glasses with actual rehab costs.I suppose if I could dedicate enough money to be able to payoff investor loans I could avoid the %rate hikes in the future.

I've been involved with similar projects as a lawyer, a potential investor, and as a glass-and-glazing subcontractor on a construction project.

We let this slide but we expect the full size patio with no additional charge.

However my inspections showed that the sliding doors were failing and given we are in a beach setting would cost me a total of $16,000 to replace both doors if I wanted them to be hurricane compliant and in code. 

I am on section 8 and I have been in the same house for 20 years, done a lot of upgrades out of my pocket, such as glass tile backsplash, crown molding, new carpet and lots more, I am a clean freak and I take care of the house I'm in, my land lady loved me. unfortunately she passed away and the family wants to sell the house.

That slide deck is awesome!
