What is your procedure for handling a tenant calling you on a cold Winter day at 2AM on a Saturday saying the heat went out and they have no alternative heating method.1.

heat?

Replace all interior doors ($7000)Heating/Cooling - New Furnace ($3500), new baseboard heating ($1500), New A/C ($500), does water heater need to replaced?

I would imagine even in the office there is a element of "when the cat's away, the mice will play"....Still up in the air on contractor versus employee...Mark

It saves money by reducing the water bill AND reducing the water heating bill as well.

You'd have to have some solar water heating to ease water heating.

If this is the case, there will be pressed piers at the corners, and digging a test pit just below the grade beam could verify the presence of the actual repair element.

@William RobisonI am, been busy with the market heating up in KC.

On the other hand, "GREAT DEALS" are created by knowledable real estate entrepreneurs by massaging the elements of the deal.

It is more expensive, but I suggest you find somebody who will use heat treatment to deal with the problem.Also, the tenant's personal property could have been harboring eggs that hatched.
