OR if its a second marriage, you then have to fight two sets of kids. 

The waste of my time was my 7-8 years marriage, which stopped me from archiving more.

Thanks for any input.Also, when you discuss (with anybody) why these applicants weren't approved, do *not* talk about their marriage status and especially do *not* opine as to whether or not their kids are biological.

The only way in my book is to rent (RTO) for 12 mo at least (date before marriage) THEN offer they buy (but only if their credit has been cleaned up etc) optoinally with seller financing. 

As a landlord, your best defense if things get ugly is correct paperwork delivered in a timely manner.If you're going to evaluate these guys, realize its a commit like a marriage for life.  

Job transfer, marriage, change of family situation (place becomes too small after having children).

If you do obtain that divorce list @Isaias Velasquez and when you meet with the sellers, besides what the asking price is for the house, everything will be based on the marriage balance sheet.

If you can do this prior to marriage or living together it is big!

As such, as decrease in demand from the folks who do use storage as a discretionary consumable is offset by those who find themselves NEEDING storage as a result of downsizing, relocating, divorce (more marriages end as a result of financial challenges in a recession) etc. 

A partnership is a relationship not unlike a marriage.
