The books I am listening to right now are the Rich Dad author Garret Sutton all his books are great about REI.

Anybody who habItually doesn’t respect authority is going to not respect their landlord .. any woman who would have such poor discernment to live and have a relationship with a criminal with such history surely is no better than him !

My bottom line suggestion, call the Housing Authority for the county, tell them you have a property that may qualify  and just ask them how it works. 

The only thing the seller said she is willing to do is to get on the phone with the bank and authorize me (or just conference call the bank) to discuss loan condition to sell me the house. 

I can't remember the authors, but "Millionaire Real Estate Investor" and anything with real estate in the title.

If it is a gov water authority but not county/city then I would have to think about it.

I have ask my landlord to replace my carpet since it's been over 10 years since I moved in she has agreed to replace the carpet on several occasions  however stated that  the property owner needs to come and inspect the carpet to make sure that  it is not  above and beyond normal wear and tear it is my understanding that in California the carpet should be replaced after 10 years  it is has bugs in it  there is no padding left  it is filthy grungy and it's already been cleaned twice and no  difference  because I am diabetic if I can have it replace laminate flooring that are being installed and all the  recently vacated units  which are being renovated I asked her on several occasions if I can have laminate floor instead of carpet and she stated that they cannot install laminate flooring in upstairs units due to the noise however I just discovered that the unit adjacent to mine on the upstairs floor  just  was renovated and they installed laminate flooring as this discrimination can I demand  this type of flooring  and ask  her about the new laminate flooring on the second floor policy and why I am unable to  have the same  can I demand that type of flooring or do I have to have carpet  I also feel she is being discriminating against me for no reason  she has been short when I ask for repairs  I asked to move to the downstairs unit and she gave me a whole rant about how she doesn't think that the property owners would allow me to move down there based on my rent being late once or twice  and a bunch of other reasons which I don't think it's her business  to point these things out to me or rather she should just give me the application or instructions on how to go about it and let the property owners make that decision  do I have any basis for discrimination  complaint against her with the fair housing authorities  California

If she complains to the local authorities about it being uninhabitable, ask the inspector to order her immediate removal for health reasons and you wouldn't owe her anything other than pro-rated rent - which she hasn't paid. 

They send the worst third party contractors, authorize the least amount of repairs, and take an unacceptable amount of time to dispatch folks and make decisions on how a repair/replacement is to be handled, while your tenants are without their appliance what seems like FOREVER.

I've done a Robert Kyosaki and Dale Carnegie course/meetup....great authors, entrepreneurs, they're seminars are all garbage.
