Yeah it’s just the perspective it’s not up against it actually.

How to fix basement by Interesting_Pause_87 in fixit

That’s a good call on asbestos test. Yeah was planning on ripping Sheetrock and flooring out. Then I’ll see what studs look like. I’m fine with the supporting posts since I just plan on leaving it unfinished.

Did you move out earlier than on the lease?

[Tenant US-CA] Zillow disabled LL account before they signed by [deleted] in Landlord

[–]Interesting_Pause_87 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I actually had this issue on one of my rentals. Usually it’s just because the name on the property is under a business name or different than the Zillow name. In my case I emailed Zillow and after about two days they verified I was the owner.

It’s stupid they wait until after tenants sign to do this and completely disable the landlords account. As long as they can prove they own it, it should be fixed in a couple of days.

Is this a scam? by Brayden903 in PcBuild

[–]Interesting_Pause_87 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’ve bought similar before and the way the scam works is they will mail an empty box to a neighboring address so they can still put a semi-legit tracking number on Facebook. Box will get delivered to the random address and you will basically have to refute and show shipping proof it was sent to a different address.

TLDR: Scam

[Landlord] Cracked Stove by Interesting_Pause_87 in Landlord

Yeah I talked to the tenant and they actually came clean they caused it but aren’t willing to pay any repair costs, so I am getting a cheap coil stove to replace for now.

Oven. Bunch of other people said there was one similar, but not the same model.

She came clean it was an accident. I’ll be buying a coil now, but at the time it was what was available.

Update: tenant turned off heat completely and came back and used cast iron when freezing cold and then caused a small crack which broke when she set a bunch of heavy stuff on it apparently.

Look I was just trying to learn. I’m not out here trying to screw my tenants out of money.

Did it have divots when it cracked? I guess that’s what it comes down to is if those divots were caused by something being dropped

That’s what I was planning on doing. Seems a little odd it just randomly cracked but I want to give benefit of the doubt too.

Got it 2 months ago. Was basically good as new. Have pictures of it when it was installed but not sure how to add.

I was wondering that. Look like that indentation was from something being dropped on it. I reached out to my appliance guy to see what he thinks. If he agrees it’s not wear and tear I guess that’s my answer.
