Al : Maybe it is me but you do reach a point with the Socialism MENTALITY that sooner or latter the Flow of Cash to the Give Me , Give Me crowd will dry up .Hence our DEFICIT of 19 TRILLION $$$ .

It was awful, but we tore out the drywall in one bathroom and repainted the entire interior including the ceilings in oil based paints, which take about 2-3 days to dry. 

If you have el cheapo window shades in place, and they want it, split the cost, but the window shades stay in place after they move out, and it has to be installed professionally (or by someone who knows screws don't stay in dry wall by themselves).

The water will want to come out towards the sun and the roof will bubble.Even if you cut the bubbles out and let that areas air dry it and patch it could still re-bubble.

So my guy dug down there to install a rebar and add new cement.The problem is that there's water coming in from the ground underneath that doesn't allow the cement to dry.

The buyer pool has dried up, so you should be able to get a deal with a 30% (or more) discount.Now, France is a big place, so pick your favorite location first.

We're doing a flip now in Portland Maine and my plan is to find air dried, rough sawn hardwood, plane it and size it, and then install it as wide plank flooring.

@Sean Haardt, As Belinda wrote, two key things she needs to move quickly on:1) As soon as the water drains down, get the wet stuff out, furniture, carpeting, baseboards, sheetrock cut to above waterline, insulation removed so the house can dry.  

It may be dry rotted beyond reasonable use, but one never knows.

It isn't always cut an dry.
