Never a fun problem to deal with, thankfully it can be remedied.

I was considering adding a deck with stairs that would allow access to the living room to remedy that.

So about a month ago we had a pipe burst in one of our unit, water ran from upstairs bathroom down to kitchen and into basement. water remediation company had fans and dehumidifiers in that tenants place for about a week running continuously. their utilities bill webt from being approx $50 normally to about $108 dollars so around double. theres 3 roommates in that unit and each one got a $100 disount for that months rent to compensate for any contractors coming in and out and not having hot water for about 5 days. my question is should i pay for the additional electricity used caused most likely by the dehumidifiers and fans?

I have a property I just (yesterday) spent $1800 on putting in a filtration system to remedy bad water.

Hi guys,Has anyone ever used thermal fogging or an ozone machine to get rid of the smoke smell? If so, did either or both work well? Looking to get a place rent ready but was previously lived in by a heavy smoker. Tha...

I began looking for a remedy, came across some information about Real Estate investing and began researching.

The remediation company will not give an absolute move out recommendation, because they refer to a third party company for environmental assessment (minimum 300-1200 not covered by insurance), but the tech has indicated it would be a good idea for them to move out for 5-7 days.
