That stay at home mom that sells Lularoo cloths out of her office while the kids play...another business.

They'd even bring winter clothes to post pictures NEXT winter. 

If you want to shop anywhere besides Walmart, a discount clothing store, or the grocery store, you pretty much have to drive to San Marcos or New Braunfels. 

They moved in, paid on time and didn't give us any issuesThen we get a call that the dryer stopped working - they overloaded it and claimed it wasn't their fault - we paid for itThen we asked them to change their air filters - They gave us an issue with it even though it was in our leaseThen the washing machine motor failed - they loaded too many clothes - they didn't pay for it and we continued to keep themWe then decided to visit their apartment because we got a bit suspicious and wanted to make sure things were not being damaged.

I'm the most un-stylish person you'll meet and my decor, clothes, and car all reflect that so looking for some help please.- Currently use grey and grey/blues, is this still in?

Even if the landlord is well off, and they have food, clothes, and a college tuitions paid for...

The real issue is what are we doing to protect ourselves and how do we avoid the wolf in sheep's clothing who puts up a front and we later find out (sometimes very quickly) that the properties are sub-par, the renovation was poor or the property management operates in name only.

Fancy cars, clothes, bags, watches,  etc does not appreciate like real estate does.

When an applicant questions why we need them to show us proof of income or income equivalents of 3x or 2.5x the rent, we explain it is so we will know they will be able to afford their rent in addition to their other living expenses such as utilities, food, clothing, transportation, medical care, recreation, home supplies, home furnishings, etc.

Could vary from ice cream shop to small clothes retailer or office space.Is there a suggested route to go for lease type vs tenant type?
