Bet he moves upon receipt.Also, what you stated doesn't hang together...he wants to delay moving to assisted living till his arm heals?

I seen pix where it was hanging down then put back up.  

Comps are around $500k.Its listed for $390k.Do I try to hang on or do I sell and take the loss?

@Alexander Phan agree with the fasterpermits referral.lots of things hang you up in PDX and Mult co.I literally built 30 new homes in Canby OR  quicker than I got remodel permits on 2 homes in PDX.I have left  PDX and their totally difunctional city services never to return.  

Hang in there.

This gives rise to the question of what we should do with our current house – it could be an opportunity to get started with an investment property by hanging on to our current property once we move out.

If the tenant got pissed off and paid a hundred and fifty bucks in court costs to file and bring that before our local district magistrate, the tenant would win a judgment against me, get his court costs back, and the magistrate would always remember me unkindly as a trifling skinflint who apparently expected his tenant not to hang anything to cover his windows.

Worse case scenario, you can choose to not hang your license and let it lapse.

we have a very successful lake house rental.At the time, we just wanted a place for ourselves and family to hang out a few weeks a year.

Never thought of the inside of a closet-especially the wall where the door hangs on the inside as most people won't see that (unless it is a walk in closet).
