Candidate 2 had an OK 2-bedroom condo in an older apartment complex and also had more stuff (partly because of the baby, I guess).

And last but not least, we also got married and had a baby last year. 

Tenants shouldn't expect you to come and make them breakfast, pick up their clothes, drive them to work etc., so why or how can anyone say you sound bad for expecting/wishing/wanting/yearning to make what the house should be bringing in...???

just don is right. you never go wrong with a tub. many people will pass your rental if it does not have a tub. bathing a baby/kid in a shower is not fun.

:).....when I was a kid I had a chest of drawers in my bedroom & the rest of my clothes were in the tack shed.Now each bedroom has to have large walk-in closets???

He found all of the closets filled at the bottom with piles of clothes, shoes etc. including food.

They seem all too eager to play video games, live with their parents, buy cars and trucks they can't afford and purchase clothes that are marked up 300% .

A security deposit doesnt pay for you flat screen and dresser full of clothes going down the road with them.

I am considering providing a stackable W/D set in the rental (due to space considerations), instead of two separate units side by side on the floor.Years ago in an apartment I had a stackable W/D and the dryer took an eternity to dry the clothes (90 minutes to 2 hours if there were jeans in the load).

I spent $18 at the dollar store to get:100 envelopes - about 50 baby blue ones and 50 yellow - actually baby invitations envelopes but...shopped at Office Max didn't find anything.Then I got 100 stamps - my mailing targets 65+CelebrateSome FlowersBatman!
