Small steps turn into bigger steps and before you know it you are running along like a machine.

i only do month to month leases for the reasons stated above..tenants want to get locked in for a while, so i tell them at lease sign up that they're welcome to stay as long as they want, as long as they pay their rent on time and don't drive me crazy...i tell them this gives them flexibility as well..if they decide to move i only require 30 days notice...the truth is most tenants will leave whenever they want anyways so a lease does little to protect a landlord...if a tenant so much as looks at me the wrong way, i can give them notice...that's not why i did it though..i pay the water bill at some of my apartments and i first had tenants renting their washing machines to friends, bunking up and having friends move in and sleep on couches..it's near damn impossible to prove that someone lives there..one night they stay here, the next night they stay on someone else's couch..so i said screw it, i'm not gonna try to prove something that is impossible to prove..if i feel something's fishy, they get a 30 day notice...BAM...don't have to prove anything that way...or i can just raise their rent with a 30 day notice as well...hope this wasn't a rambling post, but the sooner landlords learn that a month to month lease protects us more, the better we'll all be...i have a building for sale and all potential buyers want long term leases..they don't understand that long term leases mean diddly squat!!

Like a referral machine in a sense.

#3 VISIT the area meet your potential partner and see how the "machine" works in person.

Water drips from the ceiling, shower doesn't turn off, no pressure, basement floods when the washing machine drains.

in your basement.I'd like to get to the point of one or two table by the washing machines and that's IT!

Recently I bought a machine that can write and hold a pen and have been testing out different fonts, colors, scripts, etc.

But the maint on the machines scares me.  

Also, we provide the equipment for coin-op machines in multi-family shared laundry rooms.

Show them how to flip that model on it's head and allow them to be part of a wholesale machine!
