Don't forget the cash you already put in the place... to some degree you've been compensated already by not paying full rent at first, but I still think it'd be a good idea to have the landlady walk the place, and take a FULL accounting of everything, good and bad, about the place. She hasn't been in it. And if she wants to do repairs and hold you accountable for damage like it's a real rental, let her do the faucet. She just has to do it while you're there...
Or, you can have it done and deduct that from the rent... her choice. If dad can do it, he'll do it for the price of parts. If he can't... then we'll call the plumber with the tigers :~D
I still need to figure out how I'm going to get in touch with her - wish I had a home phone number.
I have a lot of tidying to do before I show her through, though. Had it kinda neat, and then everyone came and left and I was basically not home all week...so I'm way behind. At least got the air mattress put away and stuff like that last night, but...
I wonder if she'll be shocked at how much isn't done. She seemed to be under the impression that everything had been painted, everything repaired, the carpets all nice and neat, etc., etc. Hopefully she understands that the broken things aren't my fault...except for the door being off.
