I was just reviewing leases, and saw their 10-year anniversary is on valentines day (I've owned the place since last April).

...when you tell your husband you would rather have him buy you a rental rather than jewelry for your next anniversary ...

The condition of the carpet wasnt so great before..very worn down. and what was i thinking..well actually my dog is fully potty trained...but my husband wanted a puppy..after i said no its a pain in the A$$ to train them and theyre too much work..hah he said oh no ill train him...well a year later hes finally trained..not because of my husband lol. anyways its cheap carpet and wasnt in great condition before...it had definatly been professionally cleaned before hand but with a oil based soap because a few staines came up as we lived there.

They'll be for trading for commodities, like SOAP, seasonings etc, if we ever get that bad.

As for national pride, I think you get much more pride from your family, your friends, and your accomplishments, than you will ever get from the government.Sorry to get on a soap box - just my 2 cents.

Next week will mark the 2nd anniversary of our buy and hold rental business.

I think in return you could provide a welcome gift and thank you for letting you get things ready - this could be something simple like a thank you card and a gift card, welcome mat, or hand soap - something people would need when they are first moving in!

Also, STR furniture may have a shorter life-span than stuff in a longer term rental.And then there are the zillions of things such as wine glasses, soap dispensers, accent rugs, pictures on walls, shower curtains, napkin holders, coffee makers, hangers, decorative items, and on and on and on..... and on.

If they tell you wait then you just sit on the loan for a couple months and then close on the 6 month anniversary.
