I have a women applying with 2 teenagers (under 18) listed on her application who I was about to approve when I noticed something weird.

My current apartment that I share with my 2 teenage boys is not neat as a pin - I'll tell you that.

I just wish you were a touch less confrontational about things you're actively asking to learn something about.And your whole positivity all-the-time kick...it reminds me of propaganda shots of the Hitler Youth and the Soviet Union's Young Pioneers, all those teenagers in line with wide fixed smiles enthusiatically doing calisthenics in the broiling sun, not a hint of the death camps or the gulags about them as they focused on an ever-more-brilliant future to come, the Thousand Year Reich and the Worker's Paradise.In this country, I have learned to deeply mistrust permanently positive people who melt into puddles and wail at the first sign of real hardship.

I want no part of either program despite my paying taxes into it since I was a teenager.

Teenagers are good at texting. 

Because we'll need MORE money over the next 10 years, (teenage daughter, college, wedding, exploratory travel, etc.)

I am looking at OKC for both my retirement and building a rental portfolio for my 2 teenage boys.

.$600-700 (at these levels) is significant (not as significant as the $2500-3000 per month that could be reduced by hiring a FULL time cleaner and ambitious entrepreneurial teenager looking for work) but nonetheless is sufficient to cover ALL of the electricity, water, sewer, trash and internet that vacation rentals require.

I've rented to a single mom with 4 teenage kids.

Guessing but apparently the tenants teenage son was arrested for, we think for drugs.I am at my wits end with all this and am talked to my realtor to just sell the place.
