Landlord is littlebit crazy kind (On one occasion when I complained about some minor issues he started shouting and screaming over the phone with lots of F*** words since then I actually stopped communicating to him) and I think I may have to involve authorities, if that stage is reached where should I complain or should I just get the help of attorney.In any case I would appreciate your response and help in my problem.thanks in advance,Rental7

Hi, I believe I'm in the final stages of making an offer on my first investment property.

I'm a big history-buff and I like the "old west" stuff, not only that but I don't think neighbors would be too big of an issue.If you're an everyday mainstream person, then my entire message probably made absolutely no sense and sounded utterly stupid.
