Hmm, I didn't think about that.  I may have to file a claim and see what they say.  We do have a big $2k deductible I believe which I am sure if you were paying somebody to completely fix it all would exceed that.

Typically homeowners covers water damage. The usaa guy told me it is their #1 claim. They even have water detectors you put under your floors that connect to the wifi and alert you to problems; they came out and gave us a bunch. File a claim and get it fixed.

    What we get for rent each month covers the mortgage, insurance,
    taxes etc. We have a lot of equity in it which is why we want to
    do the 3 year plan then sell.

    figured out what the cause was. The renters did not have their
    washing machine connected properly and water was constantly
    leaking behind it. I suspect it might have been leaking down the
    wall at the washer connection. Entire floor along that wall where
    washer sits is rotted out. Will have to remove all the tile from
    the room and cut it out and replace. I did not go that direction
    under the house so could have rotted floor joists as well.

    with the proceeds. No house payments would go a long way to
    building a retirement or buying a 201x E250.
