The odds are they are going to have a real hard time paying rent on time too.

I would also bet they would have done a much a much better job if I did this but I don't have time for that.

Staying at or within a couple hundred dollars a month of Sec 8 schedules will be a safe bet, usually goes up to 4-5 bedroom rents. :)

Actually, there may be hundreds of them, but since you don't know about them, odds are they aren't making very much money.

I bet you'll enjoy it here!

The odds are stacked against it.  

That's odd, I would think they would just get them turned off day of closing, that's what people do here, they call in advance to have utilities stop being billed in their name day of closing.

Average rents for similar size are $1400-$1500, there are a lot of odd balls asking for $2500 for some reason, but I think those are mostly for seasonal tenants and the houses are furnished...

I bet the whole place smells like roses...

After they took my check, and we waited patiently for 45-odd mins for the account to be established, I find out that they've opened a SEPARATE checking account under our names.
