No, actually they're not IF you know how to write carrier compliant text messages.Its confusing all the steps to me. 

@Mary JayIf you have not done so already, make sure you are putting all your responses in writing.

I am writing likely 3 offers today/tomorrow. 

The reality is the opposite - if it's not in writing then the PMC doesn't have to provide the service or can charge extra for it!

Abu, now nearly 90, still cannot read or write in any language but can sign her name.

In your next lease ensure that you have a one month penalty for breaking the lease and enforce it along with getting everything in writing when they give notice and you accept it. 

Get a good General Contractor, write a proper contract with proper payment milestone schedule.If you don't think you can come up with the money to finish it get out from under it and talk to your HML ASAP like @Jay Hinrichs mentioned.Happy to connect and talk through the situation more if that would help!

Bob, thank you so much for writing me.

If you prefer passive style, house hack or out of state rental makes sense. 

The daily interest is then calculated on this remaining balance.People often ask, what if I write a check and the AIO just swept over all my funds and I have zero balance in there, what happens ?
