He's broke and jobless, yet he won't even lift a finger to assist.

I'm talking to a lady who would like me to buy her house.

And that, ladies and gentlemen, is how the slamlord is born.Copy of ad in case it expires:"Two houses, 3XXX Tartarian Ct., 8XXXX Seckel Ct, 21227 Call before 9:30am or after 5pm for appointment to view houses.

Seller owns it outright and I am offerring cash and saying the seller can chose the closing date (she's an old lady with a lot of stuff in the house and may be in a rush but may want to stay through the holidays???).

Get a gallon of kitchen paint for the cabinets, it will help keep grease and finger smudges off of them.

Overall, it's in very nice shape.The lady is moving in a month and started at $3500 (she paid over $4200 two years ago).

Okay........Have a tenant that I filed eviction on.The county was backed up so took awhile on the writ.Marshall is serving the eviction the 21st of November after 3 months from filing court date.The woman became disabled and filed for SSI disability.I talked to her case worker and the usual time for review is 2 years to get approved or denied.She told them she was getting evicted and sent evidence.They escalated and marked file for review.When I discussed with case worker even though file is flagged it still has to go through the judge for review which takes 2 to 4 weeks and then if approved SSI will send me the landlord the back rent owed which is around 4,000 with late fees and penalties.So the answer from SSI will not be in time before the eviction.I already told the tenant today I need at least half 2,000 or I am not stopping the marshall from evicting on the 21st.The lady says she would call me back and says she might could get the money but the issue is she can't pay me because when she goes for review for SSI they will ask where she got the money to pay rent.Then she could lose benefits or amount of lifetime benefits going forward and will not risk the lifetime benefit.She said if I just waited I am on the forms to get paid when she gets approved.My thing is If I cancel the marshall then I have to refile eviction and with the Holidays it will be January or February before I get them out.I told the lady I was not stopping it for a 600 payment and that she is not guaranteed SSI approval and I can't stop it on a PROMISE.We will see what she does.I told her to pay by Sunday.If I get 2 grand now it will be one less unit I have to rehab and then if SSI doesn't come through with the rest in 4 weeks I can evict again.She is judgement proof even though I have one on her I can't collect from pensions etc. with garnishment or bank levy.She was a tenant I inherited from a previous landlord 4 months ago when I bought the place and she used to pay on time before getting hurt with her back.Any thoughts or dealings with SSI Disability will be helpful.

In todays liberal law-suit happy society, someone could point a finger at you and say you didn't act in the seller's best interest while negotiating the short.

If you didn’t like what they had to say, you could have gave them the finger early and kept it moving.But for me I had to know was jumping in at the $10,000+ level worth it.

Cross the fingers for you on sunday.
