No Central AC.

Is there any allowance for time and labor for the owner completing repairs, to bill to the security deposit as well?

There is no national GAP funder outlet. 

No.

@Justin Reyes Let me ask you this...If you owned a marketable piece of real estate and no longer cared to own the property what would you rather do: (a) Sell the property, pay off your mortgage and move on to other opportunities; or(b) Sell the property without paying off the loan,  remain liable for the loan as the note signer and trust the buyer will continue to make payments on that loan, and if they don't your personal credit is damaged? 

You will be lucky if you get away with hefty fines and no jail time.

If you lived in the old house for 2 of the past 5 years you have no capital gains taxes if you sell within 5 years because it would be exempt.  

It is a no-win situation for the landlord.

:)now, here's something... when we bought our house 13 yrs ago i knew nothing about remodeling. so when taking the wall paper off on one wall, 4 layers of wallpaper came off and some of the plaster. had no idea how to patch it, so we bought a bhear texture paint in a can that you apply with a special roller. and then we painted on top, so the bumps are smooth.so now, we have one accent wall in the house that's texture and everyone that walks in thinks it looks like art because we added some shapes that do not have the texture. even plasterers have commented on stealing that technique.. :)

Note too that in Wake County, unlike decades past, there is no meaningful "foreclosure discount" (defined as the fact that winning courthouse bid prices were generally (historically) much lower due to the forced sale feature of NC statutes and Deed of Trust Power of Sale clauses) and this is confirmed by a recent Fannie Mae study.
