I'm not that professional but I think a whole house filter would filter particulates like dirt but not chlorine. for chlorine you might need a reverse osmosis system for a specific drinking water tap to eliminate the taste as it's not practical or efficient to put an RO on the whole house supply. if skin issues from bathing are a problem you might need a softener. sometimes when kids have eczema doctors actually prescribe "bleach baths" where a small amount of chlorine bleach is added to the bath water. also many of the water treatment systems can be rented so maybe just rent it while they are there. regardless, proceed with data. water test, pediatrician diagnosis (if it's legal to ask for, no clue), and a system that is right for the application. sounds like the tenant is willing to help out which is awesome.

Get an attorney familiar w/ working these issues.

Are there other issues I should be considering?

This sounds more like a contractor issue rather than architect problem.

I almost typed "independently" but there is a nuance stopping me from that, the very issue we're discussing.If the two of you do not have other STRs, as seems to be the case, you only have this one STR to draw the required hours from. 3 material participation tests to try:1.

Just started cold calling with VA's a couple of days ago and we've run into one of our first major issues.

I'm not sure competition was the problem for you - sounds like it was more an issue of marketing and managing the lease up process.

I would talk to your lender - there might be state specific issues but I know alot of folks (myself included) that bought only in one name.

We've contacted Zillow for assistance, but the issue has not been resolved yet.Has anyone encountered a similar situation or have any advice on how to proceed?

Main issue with house is the amount of mess left behind.
