Joel Owens Roof rain pan and glass install
30 January 2012 | 1 reply
I received a quote which I feel is very high.This is even after I told the company that I do not pay retail.On one of my chimneys there is a rusted out rain pan for the chimney top.I had the roof guy take pictures to confirm and show me while I was there.The cap that slides over the rain pan is fine.For a new rain pan the quote with labor is 425.00 which I think is really high for a flat piece of metal.On my buildings I have some exterior glass panels that are cracked and need replacing.I have 3 bigger window panes say 3 feet by 4 feet sliders.Then downstairs I have small slider windows next to the front door say 28 by 14 inches.For the 10 panes they want with 2,350 which comes to 235 a window.Let me know If I can find a better deal or what the cost should be.Sliders,frame,and everything else is fine it is just the glass is broken and needs replacing.

Hal Cranmer New Property, Bad Tenants

Unfortunately I think you will find that section 8 cares more about their tenants than the landlords.I have gone the route before of section 8 violations and the case workers do nothing.You simply have to evict the section 8 tenants.Mine not in compliance went voluntarily.It was a case of one great tenant next door had a small child care facility of watching 4 to 5 kids.The section 8 next door that were inherited tenants I received upon inspection had a pit bull and a rottweiler.They were told that was a violation of their lease.We evicted and they said they had gotten rid of the animal only to find they were hiding it and was back again.The parents dropping off the kids were scared of the pit bull for the day care next door.This tenant also had a portion of utilities they were responsible for after the voucher paid.They went round and round not understanding why they paid the difference etc.I can tell you when you look at section 8 it is great as long as you pay attention to the voucher.If you want to rent for 800 and the voucher is for 500 then don't do it.They simply will not make up the difference.If it's only 50 bucks they have to come up with then they can usually pull it off.Section 8 inspectors are real picky on all the things they want fixed before you pass inspection.If a tenant wears down a property heavily each year and you have to put a ton of money in to pass inspection each time that is a consideration.Don't be quick to evict the other regular tenant.You have to treat them like a person with a mortgage falling on hard times.
