It doesn't do me much good in the Las Vegas market, but I thought members in Portland would find it useful.Understanding and Appraising Properties with Accessory Dwelling Units

Those as part of private equity, I am less sure.What I am essentially saying is that Wall Street got interested in main street and bought up on a massive scale single family homes (often in foreclosure) and through partners or subsidiaries managed them (or sold them off).

If they do start touching things, I ask them to please keep their hands off the walls and the woodwork... so often told to me when I was a child! 

When I have an odor problem, in addition to trying to treat the floors and walls like a lot of people have suggested, I also rent an ozone machine to run in the property for a day.

Ours was coming down a wall which was not wet and seeping to low point in the floor then seeping into the wood.  

I am starting to see more and more kitchen remodel where the kitchen wall receptacles are turned 90 degrees, sideways, as in a "Landscape" versus a "Portrait" orientation.I believe this is more convenient? 

Avoid "wall of text."  

The paint is peeling, the walls r cracked, the tiles r falling off in te bathroom shower probably from the leak he said he hasnt fixed which my inspector says is the cause of a huge amount of water under the unit!

Wow Toilet and Tub were on the wall and the shower came out of the floor?

We put a family up in a hotel  for a week when we replaced all the floor covering, painted all the walls, and did some upgrades in their apartment.
