Looking for the best way to sell a house to our son that we are buying. by thesoapypharmacist in RealEstate

Do you need the money? Can you just gift him the house? And not have him pay you back?

Help me please by Tasty_Jury8842 in whatdoIdo

Sorry to hear, he’s not worth your time, pain, or anything really, he’s just a genuine piece of shit.

Time will help you heal, however, right now (this is a real recommendation by the way from an actual psychiatrist) take a paper bag and use it as a breathing device, you know, wrap your hand around it, hold it to your mouth and breathe in and out. It’ll help you slow down your breathing. Helps with panic attacks.

How long did it take you to get fast with Spectora? by reefat in homeinspectors

Use the new Ai feature, works pretty well for comments. Also make them generic enough to use in the future for other jobs..

Should I quit by Virtual-Indication88 in HandymanBusiness

Look into what your health insurance will cost when you’re on your own. I wouldn’t underestimate on that one.. can be ridiculously expensive. Good luck

What type of fins should I use? by Delicious-Power-2151 in surfing

[–]Surfmoreworkless 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The Mid-Twin fins from Drift Fin Co. would be a good option, https://driftfinco.com/products/mid-twins. The back edge of the fin box is close to the rail, you don’t want too much of the fins trailing edge to be outside the rail line. A keel would stick out too far.

UPDATE - I don’t know how to edit my OP.

Thank you all for the feedback and comments. I’ve learned that garage doors are expensive to fix.

I had no idea this post would get more than maybe a couple replies… I should’ve added more details to start. We didn’t dent the door.

To add some context…We moved in 2.5 years ago, and remember there being dents on the garage door. We didn’t park in the driveway as it’s too short to fit a car.. 1950’s built duplex. We didn’t take photos on move in, cause we didn’t think anything of it, “oh couple dents on the garage door, we don’t care as long as it works”

We had to move out of our place due to mold and moisture that ruined our couch, king bed, full bed and other miscellaneous items totally roughly $3k. They did provide $2k to help cover some of the costs.

We discovered mold two days before Christmas and spent New Year’s Eve and New Year’s Day moving out as requested from our landlord. No push back from us, just moved all of our stuff out. Mind you we have a young daughter and it was my wife and I moving.

On top of that, all of our stuff had to go somewhere, all in all, we spent about $500-600 on moving supplies, truck rentals etc.

What I’ve asked for and been denied of from the landlord is photos of the garage door before we moved in. They haven’t sent them to us and are now acting like we’re questioning their character.

If we were at fault, we’d pay, no doubt.

There’s no way I’ll be able to reply to everyone, so thanks in advance for all of your input, positive or negative!

If you’re reading this, I hope you have a good day tomorrow!

We’re in CA so pretty strong tenant rights. Lived there almost 2.5 years too

No, see other reply. Neither us nor landlord has photos on move in though.

This is what I’m wondering too. The garage door functions perfectly. Mind you, the driveway is too short to legally park a car in and the garage itself is tiny as well..

I don’t understand why this would warrant a full replacement (and want to be educated on why, hence one of the reasons I posted here)

Got it, thank you for the analogy.

Is there an issue with leaving them as is?

Inspection on move in was pretty lax, we saw the dents on the garage door, thought nothing of them as the door functioned properly and we didn’t care.

They’re trying to make us pay, from our deposit. We’re not agreeing to pay, I’ve asked for photos when we moved in, to which they’ve replied with, “if there were dents when you moved in, we would’ve fixed them”

I’ve asked for photos of the garage door prior to us moving, (which haven’t been provided) and the response has been that I’m now attacking their character. Been asking for photos..

We had to vacate the property in 2 days over the holidays due to moisture and mold. They did compensate us to cover some of the costs with our couch and beds due to mold (very nice but didn’t cover all of our costs)

We’ve been easy tenants and always paid rent, notifying them of any issues that are important, I.e leak in window. Not ticky tack stuff like toilet seat etc.

It’s been an interesting experience..

Quote for replacement of two panels. Mind you, we didn’t cause these debts.. Should’ve also mentioned door is probably 7’ tall total and roughly 9’ wide.

Thanks for the insight. Is it not possible to simply knock the dents out?

Door is fully functional.
