I would tell him to kick rocks while insisting that he vacate his lease.

Oh and the original Incumbent tenant dies of natural causes in the unit one month prior to closing in June which delayed it again.Needless to say...

As we wrap up our eighth year in this business and have seen many people come and go during that time, I can’t help but feel thankful for the success we have achieved and the fact that we are still here, with a rock star team working to get better every day. 

Depending on the nature of the relationship he had with the deceased, he may actually find it offensive that all you care at this point is your rental. 

The primary variables are depth, soil structure and the need for shoring, rock interference  and setback/travel distance.

Cultivate relationships where referrals become a natural part of your interactions.

As long as the amount of segregated 1245 property in the replacement property is fundamentally equivalent in amount and nature to that of the relinquished property.

And you have to be comfortable asking people to do something they may not be naturally inclined to do.  

It was not a newly constructed fence to increase the value of the property; rather, it was a replacement for an old, damaged fence due to nature disaster. 

@Noelle MastelottoColumbus definitely gets all 4 seasons and thankfully no natural disasters which is good.
