Alford (my D.I. at basic training) chews my butt up one side and down the other with his angry face so close to mine that the brim of his Smokey the Bear hat keeps bumping into my forehead, which only serves to piss him off even more.In the short time I've been here (lurking and learning) you are one of a handful of people I've singled out for being really on the ball.

if they fine me, depending on the amount i won't pay it. if they throw me in jail, i'll be costing them money for some piddly offense and will have a short term. they sure as F*ck won't be able force me to let them live there, i'll make their (tenants) life hell so bad they'll move out on their own real fast. even if i, for some reason, decide to use the eviction process, i'll just start that process the minute they move in. that way, what ever BS time frame can pass and i can exercise it later on my own immediate terms. i'll hide the eviction language in the rental agreement (that they won't get a copy of). bottom line; renters are pieces of sh*t and i'll stop at nothing to ensure they can be thrown out on my time frame instead of after they're done damaging my financial/physical property.

I don't tend to submit too many low-ball offers, and I probably have about 10-15% success rate on my offers (after negotiations, of course...the first offer is rarely accepted).
