I did the sand and seal on most of the rest of the areas, certainly anywhere with a hint of "water damage" on the wood.You will probably only need to replace a couple subfloor panels per room.

I don;t know even a single landlrod who permits new, un house trained puppies.At any rate, it was you and your dogs who ruined the caprpet, so you get to pay to fix the damage.If your puppy did any other damage, such as chewing the baseboards or cabinets, you can expect to pay for that, too.The next time you want a puppy, study up on crate training before you bring the puppy home.Since your husband got the puppy over your objection, take the fee for the carpet out of his allowance.

I have been running a successful painting business for the past eight years specializing in restoration, fire and water loss.

Yes, the inside can be trashed; there can be hidden structural damage; mold; lead paint (oh no!)

The owner currently rents out half of the garage for storage only at $75/month. 3 off street prking spaces. 5 new hot water tanks, 4 new htg systems & updated elec.

Although it's real early in the morning and I haven't had my coffee, it looks like with that debt load you're going to be treading water.

Kind of like boiling the water with the frog already in it.

You have an obligation to "mitigate" damages...in other words, you need to make reasonable, good faith effort to re-rent the unit.

I want to begin with smaller projects to test the waters.

However, let me tell you, I've done some cleaning up after tenants and it can take days to clean up their filth and hundreds of dollars to repair the damage.
