slowly but surely

January 8th, 2018 at 11:26 pm

We have access to the house. There has been some damage. The carpet in the master bedroom, hallway and lower level bedroom have all been ruined by the dogs. The master bedroom door is scratched up, basement door is completely missing, the lower level bathroom has a cracked and hole in the shower stall, I looked into this and it seems that it can't be replaced separately so I might have to install a new shower. I just looked it up and it has been discontinued but they direct me to replacement...I wonder if that will work? There's also a small utilitarian light fixture that is broken. I'm trying to work with my management company to help me claim all of the deposit (1 month rent plus $500 for dogs) and I'll put it into the repairs. I know that it will cost more than that but I just want to move forward.

It needs a deep cleaning...

We have pulled up and recycled almost all of the carpet ($20 for 2 truckloads), 2 bedrooms are painted. We have a carpet installer coming to measure for the carpet which is from a wholesaler.

We're starting to purchase used furniture and etc. I expect we'll start to move in within a few weeks to a month. I'll do some repairs to the townhouse and then put that on the market. It's a sellers market so I'm looking forward to being in the big house with the mortgage paid off.

    Hope everything works out. Glad you could finally get in and get busy on getting it cleaned up.

    Thanks Yash... I know it will work out in the big picture Rob...we'll just keep plugging along.

    I'm frustrated because the downstairs shower stall is cracked and because they no longer make it, we'll have to rip it out and install a new one. Right now with a good economy there aren't a lot of handymen around to do odd jobs. I guess we'll have to pay contractors a bit more for this work. Ugh
