Like @David Krulac I fall in-between the polar points expressed here.Though we hold mostly multi-family properties, we do have a few SFRs which are student rentals at this time.In the case of a property that may be sold to a retail buyer, I agree that you would wait until you were preparing for disposition to affect the final cosmetic renewal and possible quality upgrades (i.e. moving to soap stone counters in the kitchen).That said, we look to affect efficiency retrofits early in our ownership of a property - usually at the first opportunity provided by turnover.

It then becomes rooted in opinion in and of themselves.

These are pretty simple fixes, but you have to go to the root of the problem.

. - good to hear- we're all rooting for you!

Come out to a grass roots meeting of like minded real estate investors.

The other problem is if the inside of the pipe is not nice and smooth, the liner would assume the shape of whatever it is...so if you have some tree roots that breached into the pipe, that liner would take the shape of the root it unfolds over.

. :)Sorry I got on my soap box, but.......good luck. :)

We're rooting for you and I bet there are other local REI folks who would join in with you.

., with them and try to find the root of their problem, and then we try to create a work out plan that’s a win/win for both the homeowner and PPR.

If you can't grow where you are planted you might consider transplanting your roots.
