It appears rents should be around $850-$900.

With the guidance of the probate lawyer, I went down to the Solano County court and pulled the old file (which was in “deep” storage because the case had closed ten years prior).

The defendant did not provide any extenuating reason for failing to appear at the scheduled time (in spite of being given additional 20 mins to appear)I faxed the judge yesterday nicely worded letter stating that I live 125 miles from the courts, and that it would be very inconvenient for me to have this reopened. and that I object to her motion to reopen the case. 

They also gave a fill out I-8 form, which appears to be appropriate for this situation. 

Fortunately the first-in-time ordinance regulating the screening process was struck down by the courts though it is still a good general principle to offer tenancy to the first qualified tenant who completes the application process.   

The verbal warning to use the air conditioner isn’t enough to stand on in court, especially since she turned it on and it doesn’t work.

@Shanae WilliamsCall the recorder of deeds and/or tax assessors office at your local court house .

Looking at that particular example, it appears your rent might be on the low side and expenses on the super high side (your capex/vac/misc is at 40% of your gross rent almost).

The parents would have to get a court order to be able to retrieve their son's possessions and that, when released, I should take a witness and photograph the inside of the unit to prove I didn't take anything.Day 4 - The unit was finally released to me. 

I'm wondering what my options are as far as maybe a Quitclaim deed, or some kind of court order, but then again, I haven't even spoken to this man.
