Time costs money along w/ a deflating American $$ 

I am at the pre-screenining process.Every potential tenant has to answer a set of questions before I even show my property as I do not want to waste my time on tire kickers.Potential tenant:has a toddlerhas one college age teen(over 18) who visits herhas another adult child who visits herinherited some money currently lives in the area with her roommate who is also her landlordMy property is:well taken care of A class property priced just below the market in a great area but I do have a high security deposit requirementI am not in any particular hurry to rent to just anyone because I do not need a headache.I do have a pretty good idea that she would not quality based on her income.I do have very strict guest rules in a contract.If they are not guests then they have to be on the application and qualify individually.It already looks like it is a bit too complex.Your thoughts on this?

After realizing there is a massive shortage of single family homes in certain areas, and a large institutional Wall Street sweep on market supply of sfr’s, the concern is that American’s can’t buy a home and compete with Blackrock and similar entities.

The family in the inhabited unit was on a month-to-month lease until a couple of months ago, at which point I had my attorney send them a 30-day notice of nonrenewal of lease.The tenants are effectively ignoring the nonrenewal notice, and my attorney has reached out directly to these tenants a number of times in order to offer them more time to vacate, as they are a little older, aren't in the best physical health, and have an adult son for whom they care.My attorney is communicating with the tenants on my behalf, exclusively, as I wanted to be as legally cautious as possible.The tenants are not responding to my concession to allow more time to vacate (they asked for an additional six months - unreasonable - I countered with two months), and they still claim to my attorney that we have a valid lease, despite there being a valid nonrenewal notice having been issued.

Drought Monitor (the government’s official drought-tracking service) reveal a parched landscape the likes of which the American West hasn’t seen in decades.

They hire high school cleaners with a couple adults at $14-$22 per hour - so they're not doing everything. 

It's easy enough here to find numerous banks within walking distance for currency exchange, most of the folks speak German, English, some Turkish and other languages as well, there are no shortages of things to do/sites to see, dining of local cuisine as well as international restaurants (from American to Australian), and shopping from both major retailers as well as open/local market shopping. 

I've been impressed by First American Exchange although haven't worked with them yet.

This isn't the "great American novel" we're talking about...or is it?
