jeffrey..i own several houses and apartments...i don't babysit my tenants and i can't possibly watch their every move..i would like to think that my tenants down throw trash on the ground, or yell loudly, etc..but i'm sure that every once in a while, you could drive by one of my properties and see something...that goes with the territory of my lower income and median income tenants and neighborhoods...i'm, sorry you disagree with me, but the landlord isn't out there screaming and littering..we should hold the guilty party responsible--that would be the tenants..when i first started out i had tenants on a year lease that i wanted to evict for arguing constantly with the neighbors, and having extra guests in the house..my attorney advised me not to evict for that..you see, it's near impossible to prove that in court..the extra guests will say they stay there some nights and other couches other nights, etc. etc...that's why i only do month to month leases with my tenants now, so i don't have to worry about proving anything in court--they simply get a 30 day notice...however, maybe your neighboring landlord isn't so lucky..perhaps he wants these tenants gone as well, but knows that he has little chance in court...you say you have "video's of the kids littering, crossing my grass, screaming in front of my home, parents yelling at the kids constantly down at the park a block away, unlicensed dogs in my yard doing their business and yes it's their for dogs I have video of them barking all day and night in their back yard"my question to you is why not sue them??

The value of your labor is stored in that money and now, Joe, your partner, gets the benefit of your previous hard work.I’m not trying to be weird or philosophical, but simply trying to keep you from feeling guilty by believing you are not earning your half of the deal because you “only” funded it and provided no extra labor.There are more practical reasons.

Definitey have a meeting, plead your case and ask them for proof of late rent since you dropped letter in the mail several days ahead.
