If I have a large window then I count it as 2 windows.Bathroom sink and faucet: $150.Carpet: $1.80/SqFt.Replace a broken window: $150/pane.Remove an oil stain from a concrete surface: $75/stain.Repaint interior of property: $1/SqFt of living space (assuming the walls are not a dark color which might require two coats of paint).How did I obtain these costs?

A bank owned property is a whole different animal.

Tenant notified of a bad smell, like dead animal.

Had a fire going the whole time so saved a ton on wood products in the dumpster.Siding removed, wrap should be arriving shortly.Garage didn't look straight originally but once breezeway gone it squares up and should be an easy frame in.Partner is a construction animal

From my understanding, Hawaii is a totally different animal from housing in the mainland.

If she does, it will be happy days again.None of the clauses in our lease seem to matter to her: smoking, moving an extra person in, sneaking in an extra animal..etc.

I would check to see if they had a lease signed with the prior landlord, if they did, check the speculations..if it had a no animals clause, there you go..not familiar with MA laws, but in Ca you can give a 3 day notices to cure or quit..which states to get rid of the animals, or vacate the premises..which in short, is the beginning of an eviction..Some can get messy..read up on your local laws..

The more people or animals on them on a daily basis Th e quicker they wear, the more folks spilling on them the quicker they wear etc...thanks for the reply Originally posted by Account Closed:I'm sure you know you can't discriminate against them because of their size.  

@Kenneth Sok - I really doubt that a fresh coat of paint is going to do a lot to increase the appraisal.

I work as a Construction Lead on a project team, in the animal nutrition industry, doing R & D for new products and continuous improvement.
