To replace a plank, you just pull it out.

Like I can replace wood paneling with Sheetrock without a permit but I cannot put insulation into the walls without a permit.

It’s not just replacement but if they enforce the bylaw, they may ask you to shut down the additional units. at least that’s how it is in ON 

Then you made about 15K, after replacing the 25% dp, and essentially got a free rental property.

The eviction ban ending Helps house prices….landlords with non paying tenants will have a chance to replace them with paying tenants….thus less financial pressure for some landlords to sell. 

It went through 23piers and 6beam replacement and good house lifting. 

I spent a lot of time managing the property manager and eventually had to replace several of them. 

I purchased the property with cash, and am 100% fine to wait the 6 months and collect pure cash flow if I have to, but I have seen numerous stories in the BP forums of lenders that do not have the seasoning requirement.

After I left, I'd let my roommate stay for the full market rent and let him take on a replacement roommate. 

I would get another electrician out and have them price replacing the box vs the rest separately.
