Maybe we can blame it on his extensive DRUG ABUSE.

Oh I forgot to mention that I had a police report made out on the tenant due to being verballiy abused when I met the plumber out for the repaid.

She then goes on to tell me -since he has no problem defaming her character - that he has a substance abuse problem and has a tendency to forget conversations.

But I also think that there will be a real alternative to the MLS within a decade, and that more and more of the research will be done buy buyers themselves.The only possible hope for an unchanged industry would be an abusive use of government to protect entrenched interests.  

I see these as ammenties that I shouldn't have to cover particularly if it appears that the appliances have been abused.

This is the simplest method, but it also means your tenants are more likely to abuse the utilities by leaving windows open with the heat or A/C running, leaving lights on, ignoring the toilet that constantly flushes on its own, etc.3.

We NEVER split a deposit...it is reconciled ONLY when entire unit is vacated, and at that time any remaining is paid by one check to all parties named on most recent agreement or any superseding addendum.Your initial agreement SHOULD have addressed joint and several liability, which means every tenant is responsible for 100% of the rent, regardless if the other skips out or gets run over by a bus.

Purchase price: $215,000 Sale price: $339,000 This 1900 distressed Farmhouse was well-used but not abused.

However, don’t abuse that power.
