How do you handle disputes over common area use, stealing food from each other, taking out trash, someone that monopolizes the space, etc.?

*new roof*interior and exterior paint*new flooring*updated electrical system*opened up doorway between dinning room and living room*all new kitchen (cabinets, stainless steal appliances, granite countertops)*trendy board and batten window shuttersThe top selling points were the beautifully tiled bathrooms and kitchen backsplash.

You should look for a steal in the surrounding area (you can draw a map as you search on Zillow) or try the area in the Valley Arts section of orange, its near the campus, the price of the properties are relatively low and theres a midtown direct train there (the highland park station)

Stealing your cash and your future while dropping in value.
