There are good values in flooring to put into houses of every price range, but what you put in a really low end house isn't going to be the same as you'd put into a luxury home.

So, my response to you will be in line with what my relative said to me; outside of the Bugatti and other luxury import sports cars, if I took what I spent on my marketing budget so far just this year, there aren't too many cars out there that I couldn't have had parked in my garage right now.

If you failed to properly notify the landlord, in writing, of deficiencies, and furthermore failed to lodge a formal complaint with the local code enforcement people, then again you have no one to blame.If your rental agreement does not address snow removal or who pays for what utilities, YOU should have been asking questions.

Meaning, for example, to make the biggest impact, you should upgrade your security first, then tackle love-belongingness issues, and install luxury fixture as a last step.

This house was a very luxurious place back in it's day, so there is a lot of woodwork and such with paint.

The rumor is that they want to put in luxury condos.So, has anyone else had this scenario?  

Maybe one or two. .Wills get filed or "lodged" local archives for safekeeping (an old practice going back hundreds of years).

Quote from @Bruce Woodruff: @Chris Seveney I agree.... no dog in the hunt but as a user ( only on fishing trips to Montana)  the pricing has gotten to high and the cleaning fee's rediculous.. so back to hotel motel lodges etc for us..

Most of those workers will seek much cheaper lodging either long term or semi long term.

@Adam Spencer, the live-in, multi family unit idea is a great way to get started, it also affords you the "luxury" (if you can call it that) of keeping an eye on the other apartments - if you're intending to tenant them for the long term until you move out of your unit.
