That is a story for another post.  

Read Brandon Turner's back story.  

They all want to see the property and I am getting to listen a lot of drama and sob stories.

Well long story short he asked for $1000 deposit leaving a balance of $2200 we gave him a check for the deposit, I asked him for an invoice and he hand wrote " $3000 plans $200 site $1000 deposit" on a plain white paper, I wrote in the check number with date.

This thing makes me nervous as I've heard some horror stories from Landlords as California is a tenant friendly state.Does anyone have any helpful tips, experience they'd like to share with this kind of situation? 

That almost sounds like a bargain though compared to the story I recently saw on the Fairmont Hotel charging $150,000 for a 3-night stay in their Presidential Suite that weekend. 

Read his blogs and back story for more information.  

Almost better than sex.....almost Thanks for sharing the story.

Your story is appealing and I'm sorry that you've been through what you've been through.
