I'm the only one that went to college and the only female that doesn't strive to stay home.

I have lived in the Medical Center for most of my adult life as I did my schooling at the University of Houston.

So many Landlords treat tenants like babies instead of like adults. 

Its a nice feeling of not being afraid of buying into a neighborhood like that.FYI: In bad areas, I dont go there at night (early morning is best), and I ALSO dont go alone...these are the same things I learned traveling as a female traveler in foriegn countries that I use in my bad area investing techniques.

Most likely he is an expert on whatever his perseverations are, and if you have a question about about his special interest,if he does not know the answer he will research it and tell you]Our 'weirdness" is why we are treated as "less than" to such an extent that for those of us who are Autistic, 95% of us [ both male and female] have been sexually abused [ being too weird to be human makes it okay to those who hurt us I assume] and we are 28 times more likely to attempt suicide. 

Like you, all adults (age 18 and up) must fill out a separate rental application with application fee.

Some people are just more direct than others.Looking back over a timeline and the number of expanding issues is giving me pause including; not paying the upfront money when required, both parties not coming in to sign the lease when arranged and now getting a request that the number of occupants will be expanding from 4 adults, 2 animals and 1 part time kid to 6 adults, 3 animals and 1 part time kid.The house is a small 4 bedroom cape so this new requirement isn't sitting right with me and now I'm kinda glad that they put off signing the lease as I am considering telling them thanks but no thanks.I don't have a backup tenant lined up so it may take a month or so before I can get someone in there but I am concerned that it may be better to take the revenue hit now than deal with their issues later.Any words of wisdom?

if we elect to shop on the market place for something competitive based on our actual need for doctor visits (besides delivery and baby checkups, we are both rather healthy adults) it seems so overwhelming trying to navigate all the options....deductibles, co-insurance, hmo, ppo, in network, hsa max out of pocket...im confused!!

I think eventually business in the heart of cities will return to semi-normal conditions, and that a lot of people will still place high value on being near all that for the social/entertainment aspect, especially young adults. 

students are not adults so you cannot expect them to treat your property with respect.
