The potential liability includes the possibility that the tank leaked into groundwater, perhaps groundwater extending beyond the subject property boundary.  

I just hope this judge agrees on May 11th to no longer extend this date and keep the original date and get him out for non-payment. 

When you sell the house, given that it will have been vacant for an extended period of time, is there anything I should be aware regarding testing and requirements for the septic system?

And as I mentioned in my post a few years down the road I decided to extend the building.  

But the second heat source doesn't run as much so the life expectancy will extend out longer. 

Furthermore, if this is a multi-unit building and the wayward keys are capable of access to common areas, there is an accountability, and scope of work, which extends beyond the specific tenant.    

One of the things he tried to get me to do during the lease signing was to extend the 2 year lease by another year, and when that didn't work, put in writing that a lease renewal would be no more than 1% when the 2 year lease expired.

Ideally all the land around your home would be sloped away from your home and ALL of your down spouts would be extended either above or under ground to divert the water as far away from your home as you can. 

Hi Chuck,I can't meet for coffee as I know longer live in the Bay Area (I attended college there, Santa Clara U, and lived there for several years when I was working a regular job in marketing and my extended family is still there) but I did flip a house in Prunedale (rural town between Gilroy and Santa Cruz) and have made investments in the Pacific Northwest (which have appreciated significantly).

Hi,I need someone to extend a gas line and vent to the outside for a gas range conversion.
