My intention is not to rip someone off, I don’t know how to navigate this situation and am looking for help there.I’m looking for clarification and justification on an itemized invoice for the nearly double expense that the biohazard company is quoting me after the work was completed for a small room and a moderately small stain. 

$18k in closing costs simply doesn't make sense so we need to see how that's itemized. 

An absolute auction is a type of auction where the property or item is sold to the highest qualified bidder without any limiting conditions or minimum price requirements.

We're hoping to compare notes with other local hosts.Issue #1: "Property Use Tax" CalculationOn our recent payout summaries, we've noticed a new line item for "Property Use Taxes" which is calculating out to 10% of the gross booking revenue.My research indicates the City of Atlanta Hotel-Motel tax is 8%, in addition to state and local sales taxes.

Looking for a team to go in my lower unit of a duplex (vacant) and take care of all necessary items to get the unit rent ready.

Realistically, you will probably only get the deposit amount back, but you should itemize the cost to get it rent ready and the rent for the period they should have given notice and put that on a move out deposit itemization.If you don't have a forwarding address mail it to the address of the unit.

Items like Concrete generally fall into the > 20 years useful life bucket.

That can too quickly be eaten up by unforeseen items.
