Pretty much the only thing we haven't done is tear down and rebuild or build from scratch.The minimum we tend to do is a complete interior cosmetic renovation, which includes all new paint, flooring, cabinets/vanities, countertops, appliances, lighting fixtures, plumbing fixtures, registers/switches/outlets, etc.

@Angela BrigidoFor Florida leases, from what I know, you have include a specific clause about radon gas and lead paint, the state rules about entry to the property, and the security deposit statute.

Ultimately, assuming you were planning to paint and replace the flooring anyway, you're going to be paying for the following extra stuff related to remediating the mold:- Remove any sheetrock that got wet- Remediate the mold behind the sheetrock- Perform air quality test(s)- Replace the sheetrockRemoving the sheetrock from the entire 2000 sf house probably wouldn't cost more than $3000.

We rehabbed the property ourselves - put in a completely new kitchen, new paint, carpet etc..

Having being an investor before you know you need to choose a specific area to specialize in.

He is a smoker and I know the apartment walls are very dirty because of it and will need painted.

The place is an absolutely mess he has guranteed me he will paint and fix it (haha I doubt it) So unforunately if I show it anyone will hate it.3.If I do go to court I will ask for 1 month rent plus above and beyond for repairs(outside of the scope of the security) is there anyway to garnish wages or make this debt appear on his credit report?

It was very commonly used in Florida during the real estate boom.It baffles me that drywall (which is extremely heavy) could be produced in China, shipped here, and then sold for a profit.A sidenote - we've all heard of Chinese toys containing lead paint.

Would much prefer a call when something worthwhile comes up and is worth pursuing.There are those that buy a lot and let agents know they will buy from anyone and that they can buy now if they have something good.You can be loyal if you choose and give her listings but you can work with listing agents on your purchases.If she is really working hard she will find you what you need but she also needs to work the kind of properties you specialize in.

Very nice backsplash, kitchen flooring, and basement renovationsCabinets - new, re-facing, simply painted ?
