You two-toned, zebra headed, slime-coated, pimple-farming, paramecium brain, munching-on-your-own-mucus, suffering from PETER PAN ENVY!!!"

I never can understand why investors actually cause the price of a home to drive up with all of their bids...

A disagreement caused a split, and an end of the friendship.

I never attended cause I'm smarter than that.

Removing it is tedious, and can leave the underlying walls / ceilings in poor shape with gouges and other damage caused by the removal process, particularly if the walls / ceilings weren't sealed and sized before the paper went up.

This issue would cause a major interruption in the living space of tenants and it is not just the cost associated with this mess (can be as high as $200k issue(s), but the time and interruption of tenants which causes loss in income."

I am happy to get a larger house but my concern is that once it goes on the market after rehab, the appraiser will catch the discrepancy causing a domino effect of issues.

So did you find out what's causing the problem??
